Since Borman, who played for Toronto in\u00a02011,\u00a0is out of contract, the league will extend a Bona Fide offer to him to play for the Revolution.<\/p>\n<p>Borman played in 21 games for the Reds and recorded three assists last season. A midfielder by trade,\u00a0the South African international also saw time at left back under head coach Aron Winter.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to an April 1, 2011\u00a0trade to\u00a0Toronto &#8211; the same trade that sent 2011 MLS MVP Dwayne DeRosario to\u00a0the Red\u00a0Bulls\u00a0&#8211; Borman played three seasons (2008-10)\u00a0in New York, where he played in 59 games, scoring four goals and earning an assist.<\/p>\n<p>Should the Revolution acquire Borman, the 25-year-old will bring additional speed\u00a0to the left\u00a0as well as\u00a0much-needed defensive depth to a team that currently has only three true\u00a0defenders\u00a0on\u00a0its roster\u00a0(Darrius Barnes, Kevin Alston and A.J. Soares).<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ryan Cochrane, Kheli Dube and Pat Phelan &#8211; all of whom\u00a0were available for the Draft after the Revolution declined\u00a0each of their\u00a0options\u00a0&#8211; went\u00a0unclaimed during Stage 1.
