Joe MacCarthy Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 quote:Rob Sing - is he still in Switzerland? No and I'm too lazy to find the link but I think there is one out there that says he is no longer in Switzerland or I wouldn't have taken him off my list. I think he was last with Sapperton Rovers (VMSL) but I could be wrong quote:Junior - is he in Germany or England?Ed has been following him and he seems to be getting non competitive games above the youth level team. David (Junior) Hoillet - SC Paderborn 07 II (German Verbandsliga Westfalen 1) (5) on loan from Blackburn (English Premier League) (1) Youth Ali Gerba is confirmed Ali Gerba - FC Ingolstadt 04 (German Regionalliga Sud) (3) http://www.fcingolstadt.de/article/article2.php?catid=1&secid=1 Besides Markus Karl, FC 04 Ingolstadt have another Neuverpflichtung to announce.

Massive Attack Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 quote:Originally posted by youllneverwalkalone David Masciantonio - what's the verdict? He actually re-signed with his existing club, Benevento until 2009. http://tuttomercatoweb.com/index.php?action=read&id=87994 He even played this weekend for them, which has been a rarity. It was a good move to re-sign if he gets playing time, as Benevento seems destined for promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VPjr Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Here's a story I found on OffthePitch.ca. It looks like a young man from Oakville is signing with Benfica. Not sure if its a pro contract but impressive regardless. CSA, if you're listening, let's not lose another player to Portugal. Keep tabs on this young man. Eurostar Goalkeeper moves to Europe. ------------------------------------ It was a surprise phone call to Eurostar Director John Moreira by its new Technical Director Nuno Santos on Thursday January 3rd that would change a Eurostar student’s life for the better. As the call came in Nuno asked how quickly 16 year old Oakville native Marcel Debellis could be in Portugal, Marcel had no clue what was in store for him. Marcel and his dad reported on Sunday morning. By Monday Marcel was training with Vitoria Setubals Academy Program south of Lisbon, former Club of Jose Mourinho. His debut was so impressive they wanted to sign the 16 yr old. Things would not be that easy as the intention of the invitation to Portugal would be a shot at 1 division giant SL Benfica Development program. A trial with benfica 15/16 squad would prove to have such an impact that the Youth squad 17/18 would have Marcel come to train with both programs in the morning and evening. Marcel would stay the remainder of the week at the Benfica state of the art 45 million euro training complex to bond with players to settle him in. What an impact this young man made that he has been invited to return on January 29th 2008 for the remainder of the season to train and live at Benfica’s training grounds and receive his education. Marcel has been training with Eurostar Goalkeeper Academy under the direction of John Moreira for the past 3 years till present and, recently with Nuno Santos former Benfica Goalkeeper. In his quest for success Marcel has been part of Erin Mills Soccer Club since 2004 playing for Coach Moreira in 2005 winning the Ontario Cup Gold and National Gold in Moncton New Brunswick. Marcel has played as a call up for the older teams at his youth Club and is part of their ADP Program. “We want to congratulate Marcel on his success, we believe this is just the beginning for this young man who we always knew he would make it in some capacity” said John Moreira of Eurostar. “The young man has all the qualities at 6”3 he has a presence in the box and has great hands and is extremely athletic for his size and also a great kid”.” He has made all of us proud here at ESGA and our entire family wishes Marcel well”. This is one of the reasons we brought in Nuno Santos and it is because of him we made this happen”.” I guess dreams really do come true”. Saturday January 12th two U14 boy’s head off to Portugal to train with Academy programs for two weeks. It has been a pleasure working with Marcel and we will keep in touch. Thanks to everyone who played a part in Marcel’s development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start fan in exile Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Kenny Stamatopoulos and Stephen Ademolu are still part of the Tromsø squad: http://www.til.no/www/laget/spillerstall_2007 This article (http://fotball.itromso.no/eliteserien/article97238.ece) which speculated that Ademolu may be on his way to Trelleborg, mentions right at the end that Kenny would be back with Tromsø when they started their pre-season last week. No news on him since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Start fan in exile Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 You should also update the level the clubs are at in Norway: Sparta Sarpsborg are still in Adeccoligaen (2nd tier) but Mandalskameratene were relegated and are now in the 2nd division (3rd tier). No news on whether Felix Brillian and Kevin De Serpa are still with their respective clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loyola Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 A Danish poster on BS is reporting that Andrew Ornoch has signed a 4 yrs deal with Esbjerg FB of the Danish Superliga. If true, it's a pretty interesting step for him since he's only 22 or 23 yrs old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolando Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Salt Lake apparently waived Jack Stewart way back in September and he is currently unattached. Here is an article from October mentioning his situation, which hasn't changed since then according to any of the info I could find. http://njmg.typepad.com/sbi/2007/10/jack-stewart-co.html Come to think of it, I'm kinda suprised he hasn't resurfaced at the Canadian C camp or in TFC rumours- oh no, that's right they don't have to worry about fielding "Canadians" at TFC anymore, do they? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Stewart_%28soccer%29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the translation I got for the paragraph mentionning Cann: Canadieren has amid the hesitation to Esbjerg , where he has had corporation from forsvarsspilleren Adrian Cann , as early as indicated themselves that a obviously , out-turned and abject human , there's grateful for that be permitted to try that make use of EfB that springbræt to a bigger european club. Tough to say why his name is there, maybe they'll bring him on trial. BTW, Esbjerg are 8th in the Danish Superliga and out of relegation trouble.
