Report: Galaxy to Add Zurawski
Dec. 10, 2007
According to a report in the Scottish Daily Mail, Celtic forward Maciej Zurawski could be joining up with David Beckham and the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer next season.
The 31-year-old striker has been riding the pine for the Scottish champions this season, making one start and four appearances as a substitute.
"I'm in full training and don't have any injuries, so there is no reason to complain," Zurawski told the Daily Mail. "But being a substitute and coming off the bench, doesn't make me happy."
Zurawski's agent, Jerzy Kopiec, is optimistic of a deal with the Galaxy being finalized in the winter transfer window.
"The offer from Galaxy is very serious," Kopiec told the Daily Mail on Saturday. "They are really determined to sign Maciej and treat him as a big star. I am flying to Los Angeles this weekend to make things official."
"The transfer window will open very soon and we will see what happens," Zurawski said. "Right now I will not say anything because nothing is sure yet."
While Zurawski has seen little of the field this season with Celtic, the Polish striker tallied 22 goals in 39 starts in league play over the previous two seasons, and started all three games for Poland in the 2006 World Cup.

The Galaxy opened their stadium, the Home Depot Center on June 7. But in order for their home to be ready, the team had to play a record 8 games to start the season and failed to win a game. In fact, the Galaxy finish the season without a win away from home the whole season. After the season's final game, the Galaxy had the final playoff spot in the West. In their aggregate series with the Earthquakes, they seemed well on to vindication for the MLS Cup loss 2 years earlier as they held 4 goals to 0 lead midway through the 2 nd game. A thing happened as the Earthquakes scored four unanswered goals to force a tiebreaker. In that session, the Earthquakes' Rodrigo Farina score to send the Quakes onto the next round.
In 2004 Looking to return to the top, the Galaxy would go through a mediocre 1 st half of the season before 3 straight wins over the summer. But from July 14 on, the Galaxy won only 2 more games, one in September and one in October. The Galaxy had a record of 11-9-10, good enough for 2nd in the West and the playoff, remaining the only club in MLS to have a playoff spot in every year of league in the playoffs, the Galaxy withstood an early challenge from the Rapids to win the aggregate goal series, 2-1, scoring 2 times in Game 2. In the conference final, the Galaxy's season would come to an end in Kansas with a 2-0 loss to Arnaud and the Wizards.
