DC not after another No. 9 after signing young DP RafaelFrom the time D.C. United were eliminated from the postseason by the Houston Dynamo in the Eastern Conference Championship, Ben Olsen made it clear his top offseason target was an impact forward. Two months later, Olsen and GM Dave Kasper believe they’ve found their man. On Wednesday, Brazilian striker Rafael Teixeira de Souza signed with the club as a young Designated Player on a one-year loan followed by the option of a permanent transfer. The 20-year-old joins D.C. from Bahia of Serie A, where the 6-foot, 179-pound forward has made 36 first-team appearances and scored 10 goals. www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2013/01/09/dc-not-after-another-no-9-after-signing-young-dp-rafael
