Galaxy buy out Dos Santos' $6m final season
The MLS club have ended their time with the Mexico international after three and a half seasons
The LA Galaxy have bought out the final year of Giovani dos Santos' contract to get to three designated players on roster, according to the LA Times.
The club had four designated players, which is not allowed by MLS rules, and different solutions were floated about as a way for them to keep the Mexico international.

Spurs players fear Kane will leave club
The striker was devastated after the club's loss to Chelsea and there is a fear he could leave in 2020
Tottenham players are fearful Harry Kane will look to leave the club in 2020 if Spurs do not win trophies next season, according to the Telegraph.
Kane was devestated after the loss to Chelsea midweek as it almost certainly ended Spurs faint title hopes.
The striker has spoken of his desire to win trophies and while he isn't expected to force his way out at the end of this season, Spurs players fear another trophyless campaign next term cause him to seek an exit.
Gundogan's Man City future in doubt
Pep Guardiola has cast doubt over Ilkay Gundogan's future at Manchester City, suggesting that a new contract would have been done by now had the midfielder been "100 per cent" sure about his future.
Gundogan's current contract expires at the end of next season and City have already attempted to reach a new agreement.
The midfielder has admitted he is considering searching for one last big contract and when asked about the negotiations, Guardiola conceded the club must wait for him to come to a decision.
