Not sure if this is posted elsewhere; however, Baba was meant to join becks and Ruud at the LA Galaxy, but has been sent home already. litterally, his time with them lasted about 45 minutes?

Anyone know anything about this?

The LA Galaxy waived three players on Monday, the day that all teams must be roster and salary budget compliant in accordance with MLS rules. The club has waived midfielders Kelly Gray and Kyle Martino, as well as defender Celestine Babayaro. All three, as well as players waived by each of the other 13 MLS clubs, will be available in an MLS Waiver Draft, which will be held on Tuesday, beginning at 12 p.m. (PT).

A native of Kaduna, Nigeria, Babayaro had spent the last month training with the Galaxy, playing once in last weekend's match against FC Seoul. The 29-year old Nigerian had spent time with Belgian club Anderlecht, as well as English sides Chelsea and Newcastle United prior to training with the Galaxy. A Gold Medal winner at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, Babayaro also represented his country at the 1998 and 2002 FIFA World Cups.
