One of Traffic Sports' newest acquisitions, Gale Agbossoumonde, has been called up to represent the United States in the U-20 World Cup that will be held in Egypt starting in late September. Gale - who is only 17 years old - is expected to anchor the United States back line. He joined Miami FC on August 6, 2009 and has played 138 minutes in three matches.
