Oddly enough, we don't really know. The team hasn't posted many pics from training in the last few weeks, it feels like. No doubt they'll flood us with a bunch of Lamps.
yup

That's too bad, they should have a press conference. This is big fricking news!
Press conference scheduled for next Tuesday it would have been today but Iraola and Angelino are sorting out visa issues. Prilo may be there for that. Or he might have a recorded message like Frank did at the jersey reveal (Kidding... kind of)

Why do they feel the need to torture us like this?! Just announce the man already so I can be somewhat productive today
 
I fear this could be a case of a placeholder page getting discovered early while his agent quibbles over minutiae. I seem to recall that the MLS added a page for him a good week or two ago, but clearly he hadn't agreed to a deal then. The "signed on June 30th" could've been something to remind the web admin to update it lest he forget to add the line altogether.

I read somewhere that he is back in Europe preparing for the move to NYC, so that could be a big reason there is no press conference. I am sure they will trot him out when they can, and I am sure everyone here will appreciate a press release coming out ahead of time.

MLS added pages for all the World Cup players. There's one for Messi too.

Jeez. Italy -> NY -> Miami -> NY -> Italy in like 8 days. Just because you can doesn't mean you have to, Pirlo. I know I'd get tired of the flights.

Oh wait, first class. FML.
