The Union news-dumped their offseason roster moves late Tuesday, announcing a formal parting of ways with Leon Flach. The club retains 24 players under contract for 2025, to be coached by a person still to be determined after the firing of Jim Curtin. That group includes Mikael Uhre, whose option automatically vested earlier in the season, and Isaiah LeFlore. It does not include Flach, out of contract at the end of the season and whom the Union are letting walk. The Union declined options on Homegrowns Brandon Craig and Matthew Real, defender Jack Elliott and forward Joaquin Torres. They also declined the purchase option for on-loan left back Jamir Berdecio. The Union described “ongoing negotiations” with Elliott, Craig and Alejandro Bedoya, who is out of contract. Also out of contract is Sam Adeniran, though the Union don’t plan to bring the forward acquired midseason from St. Louis back. Flach, still just 23, played 116 games (107 starts) with two goals and 10 assists in four seasons since coming over from St. Pauli in the German 2.Bundesliga. A dual U.S.-German citizen, he was more of a defense-first presence, one rated more highly by Curtin than Sporting Director Ernst Tanner. Flach said in October that he had not had any discussions with the club on a new contract by his choice. Berdecio, 22, was acquired on loan from Oriente Petrolero. He made 28 appearances for MLS Next Pro runner-up Union II but never made the squad for the first team. He made his international debut with Bolivia over the summer. Craig, 19, is a Homegrown product who has made one appearance with the Union for three minutes in 2022. He was loaned to Austin FC but did not play in 2023, then spent 2024 on loan with El Paso Locomotive in the USL Championship, with one goal in 19 appearances. Real, now 25, made 52 appearances for the Union since 2018. He spent the season with the Colorado Springs Switchbacks, leading them to the USL title. LeFlore was signed by the Union last offseason from Houston but tore his ACL in the preseason and missed the entire year. Torres was loaned out to Chilean club Universidad Catolica in the spring. He was acquired from Montreal in 2023 but made just 14 appearances for the Union with one goal.
Colorado's 2-way star Travis Hunter eyes Big 12 title and more before 'for sure' entering NFL draftDemocrat Derek Tran declared victory over incumbent Republican Rep. Michelle Steel on Tuesday in the 45th Congressional District, even though there are still votes to be counted. Tran held a 581-vote lead over Steel in the latest count, a margin too large for her to overcome to win the seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, he said. “Mathematically, it looks like it would be pretty hard for her to be able to take the lead and we feel confident and comfortable declaring victory,” Tran told LAist A phone call from LAist to Steel’s spokesperson went unreturned. The Associated Press has yet to call the race. The district straddles Orange and L.A. counties and includes the cities of Garden Grove, Cerritos, and La Brea. Tran’s campaign estimated 1,690 votes remain to be counted in the race. That includes vote-by-mail ballots in which the signature on the ballot did not match the signature on file with the Registrar of Voters. Each side has access to the contact information for each of those ballots and is frantically trying to contact the voters whose names show up on their list of supporters. “We are attempting to contact them five and six times to urge them to cure their ballot,” said Orrin Evans, a spokesperson for the Tran campaign. The votes that remain to be counted also include conditional and provisional ballots. “Every vote should be heard,” Evans said. Steel would need to win 68% of remaining ballots to make up her deficit, according to the statement from the Tran campaign. Tran’s victory would mean Republicans still control the House of Representatives but by a slimmer margin. Counting Tran, Democrats would hold 213 to Republicans 218. Two races have yet to be called — one in California and another in Iowa. Steel led Tran by 4.2 percentage points the day after the election. But her lead steadily eroded as vote counting continued. Tran pulled ahead of Steel by 36 votes on Nov. 16 and has led ever since. “It's been living on pins and needles,” Tran said Tuesday. “My faith in our democracy and how our voting system is set up has never been stronger.” The first-time candidate said his mother is “very excited and ready for us to start the next chapter.” Tran, a lawyer, army veteran and son of Vietnamese refugees, would become the first Vietnamese American to represent the district, which includes Little Saigon. “I am honored to be in this position,” he said, adding he will represent his community “in a way they’ll be proud of.” “It's not just the Vietnamese community that I am going to be representing," Tran said. "It's everybody in California’s 45th District and I will do so honorably and with character.” Tran acknowledged he’ll be a member of the minority party facing a Republican majority led by President-elect Donald Trump. “I am ready to tackle and take on anything that’s extreme,” he said. He also said he’d be willing to work across the aisle: “Whether it's working with an independent, a Republican, a fellow Democrat, I just want to get things done for the American people.” “It's very clear from my constituents that they want me to focus on inflation — making sure that working families can afford the groceries,” he added. In anticipation of a win, Tran attended freshman orientation for new members of the House of Representative in Washington, D.C. last week. He said he was presented with a whirlwind of information, and experience he said was almost like “drinking from a fire hose.”ROSEN, NATIONALLY REGARDED INVESTOR COUNSEL, Encourages PACS Group Inc.
