Alessandro Nesta is going to the Impact.

Perhaps, Toronto should have made the moves for Nesta and Di Viao with their immense Italian community.

I'm not that familiar with Montreal overall but I think the Di Viao and Nesta signings will be good ones. Both players are aging but were still highly productive against top flight competition this past year.

From pretty much an outside perspective, a world class defender like Nesta, even if in decline athletically, seems almost a better idea for most MLS clubs I see than famous attackers. I know the attackers sell tickets but the bigger leap to be made by most MLS clubs I see seems to be more related to defensive organization.
