The Democrat and Chronicle broke the news that two players would be the price for Lloyd. The article didn't name the additional players, but did say they were former Flash players. Brittany Bock, Stephanie Ochs, and both USWNT allocated players Meghan Klingenberg and Whitney Engen and Becky Edwards. The latter's name came out later in the evening as confirmed reports came out that Edwards would be headed to the Flash.

The trade is expected to be announced on Thursday.
