Houston Dynamo have Ade Akinbiyi to the media and are just waiting for a buy out clause to be finalized according to the club. Dynamo chief operating officer Chris Canetti said: "Our search for a forward has been very public since the offseason. Finally we have settled on a player who we think will come here and bring great results. We are very happy to have him join us."
