FC Tampa Bay have acquired midfielders Ricardo Sanchez and Jonathan Steele from the Vancouver Whitecaps.
The USSF Division 2 outfit will receive the players whilst the Whitecaps, set to enter MLS in 2011, will get future considerations.
28-year old Mexican Sanchez played 16 games for the Caps after joining from Minnesota Thunder whilst 24-year old Irishman Steele played with the Puerto Rico Islanders before landing in Vancouver in December last year.
