Zoltan Removed from DL

Kansas City striker Zoltan will miss up to eight months after suffering a torn ACL on Saturday.

Kansas City Wizards striker Zoltan Hercegfalvi was activated from the disabled list on Monday in a move that will allow him to play during the 2010 season pending his recovery from a torn ACL. Zoltan has been on the disabled list since suffering the injury in a pre-season friendly against AC St. Louis on April 17.


The 30-year-old Hungarian forward signed with Kansas City in July 2009 and made 10 appearances last season. He scored twice down the stretch for Kansas City, tallying his first MLS goal in October against Houston and scoring again two games later against Seattle. He also had one assist, coming on the game-tying goal in a 3-2 victory over Dallas on September 19.
