*Findley is looking to sign with a club outside of MLS. Bornstein is headed to Tigres in Mexico. Portland will maintain their MLS rights.

Graye, 23, has been affiliated with United since 2001, when he joined the youth academy. He started at the University of North Carolina and was D.C.'s fourth-round draft pick last winter. Beset by injuries, United used him at left and right back for 20 starts. His 1,662 minutes were fifth most on the club.

The Los Angeles Galaxy, New York Red Bulls, New England Revolution and Houston Dynamo did not lose anyone.

UPDATES: Portland sent McCarty to D.C. United for Rodney Wallace, returned Anthony Wallace to Colorado for allocation money, and dealt Alvarez to Real Salt Lake for a second-round pick. Vancouver traded Nyassi to Colorado for an international roster slot, dealt White to Seattle for allocation money; and sent Gordon and Moreno to Chivas USA for allocation money and an international roster slot.
