D.C. United has acquired midfielder Austin da Luz from the New York Red Bulls to complete a trade between the MLS clubs.

Da Luz has one goal and one assist in seven games this season, including four starts. He was a first-round pick out of Wake Forest in 2010.

His move to United on Monday is part of the deal in which the Red Bulls received an international roster spot from Washington on Saturday.
