The LA Galaxy announced today defender Sean Franklin, midfielder Bryan Jordan and forward Adam Cristman will all return to the club for the 2012 MLS season after helping LA win their third MLS Cup last season.

Franklin and Jordan each re-signed with the Galaxy while the defending Supporters' Shield winners and MLS Cup champions exercised an option on Cristman, bringing him back for a second season in Southern California.

Cristman, Franklin, Jordan and the rest of the Galaxy will return to action on Wednesday, March 7 when they take on Toronto FC in the first leg of their 2011/12 CONCACAF Champions League Quarterfinal, which will be played at Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
