Adieu Adu.

For MLS, it's Enter Beckham, Exit Freddy Adu. The young soccer phenom, who signed with MLS in 2003, has decided to play for the Portuguese club Benfica. "'Freddy, when we signed him, was one of most talented young players in the world. I think, today, he still is one of most young talented players in the world,' [Deputy MLS Commissioner] Gazidis said. 'What we've struggled with is the expectations, not that we've placed on him, but that the media has placed on him.'"
