MK Dons sign Canadian Gerba: report

The Milton Keynes Citizen has confirmed that Canadian International striker Ali Gerba has signed with League 1 side MK Dons.

According to the club's website, the former Montreal Impact and Toronto Lynx player signed a one-year deal with a one-year option following a trial period. Gerba becomes the recently promoted side's fourth signing of the summer.

Gerba's signing should give Canada boss Dale Mitchell a boost ahead of his World Cup 2010 qualifying campaign, knowing now that one of his top strikers is now attached to a club.

Gerba scored two goals in Canada's last match, a 4-1 victory over St. Vincent and the Grenadines, helping them qualify for the CONCACAF group stages.
