Freddie Ljungberg to Heat Up MLS

Freddie Ljungberg, who made his MLS debut this past weekend, was interviewed by Dave Hollander recently.

Well, maybe you can't, but the former captain of the Swedish national team signed a multimillion dollar deal with the Seattle Sounders FC of the MLS. Voted Swedish player of the year (2002, 2006) and Swedish midfielder of the year (2004), he has also graced the covers of numerous magazines and is an underwear model for Calvin Klein. So who needs Beckham, right?
