Thanks to Zak1FCK on Bigsoccer for the heads up. Another Canuck in Germany with Kaiserslautern's reserve team: keeper Zach Kalthoff. According to Kicker there are a few formalities still to deal with but it now seems sure that he will be signing with FCK: http://www.kicker.de/news/fussball/oberliga/startseite/artikel/175944

In which league does their reserve team compete?

Oberliga SuedWest, same league Julian started with in Germany with the old Saarbruecken amateurs. Parkbrau territory. Zack was at Southampton a couple of years ago. He's out of Calgary.

Gianluca Zavarise has gotten his release from Montebelluno and has signed on with VfL Bochum. Looks like he is on their U-23 roster

Good find. Might turn into a certain V's poster's favourite Canuck in Germany.

He has signed for 1 1/2 years (through 2008-2009 season) as stated in this report from Jan 31, 2008. The U23 team (amateur team) plays in the Oberliga Westfalen.

Saskatoon native Mark Korthuis, formerly of the Calgary Storm, University of Alberta, and the Saskatoon Accelerators is on trial with FC Slovan Liberec in the Czech league.

He's definitely come a long way from those days as with the Storm. I wonder if the Accelerators would get a transfer fee if he signs? I'm pretty sure the CMISL could use the money.

Hi I'm Fabian's Troche dad.

Here's some new info regarding Fabian.

Fabian was here in Canada for the holidays. He went back to Uruguay with the intention of changing club so he could played more and be part of the starting line up.

He learned a lot with Defensor Sporting, rank 20e buy the IFFHS.

So he did change. He’s still in the youth program of a first division club. The team is Rampla Jr and his part of the starting line up.

Rampla finish 3e in the first half of the season.

Thanks again.

Keegan Ayre has gone on loan to Berwick Rangers(Scottish Second Division.) Apparently this happened on January 25th.

http://www.hibernian-mad.co.uk/news/loadnews.asp?cid=TMNW&id=374143

"Hibs boss Mixu Paatelainen has allowed youngsters Keegan Ayre and Blair Tolmie to head out on loan for some much needed first team experience.

Both players have signed loan contracts with second division side Berwick Rangers until the end of the season and will both be in contention for the relegation strugglers against Raith Rovers at Stark's Park tomorrow."

Stephen Ademolu has been cut from Tromsø's training camp squad.

http://fotball.fvn.no/eliteserien/article100633.ece

Coach Steinar Nilsen says this has nothing to do with Ademolu's injury problems - simply that they feel they have 4 strikers better than him in the squad.

I guess Ademolu will need to find a new club. The transfer window is open until March 31 in Norway and Sweden.

As I posted in the Canucks in Germany thread, Maycoll Canizales signed with SC Bonner, Oberliga NordRhein (4th div) over the break. Contract good until the end of the season.

From their site: headline '3 new signings':

Drei Neuzugänge

Vor dem Ende der Wechselperiode am Donnerstag vermeldet der BSC drei Neuzugänge:

Für die linke offensive Seite kommt der 5-fache kanadische Nationalspieler Maycoll Canizales zum BSC. Der 25-jährige spielte u.a. im Juni 2003 mit dem kanadischen Nationalteam beim 1:4 gegen Deutschland. Er stammt aus dem Jugendinternat von Werder Bremen und bestritt für die Zweitvertretung des Bundesligisten von 2001 bis 2004 47 Regionalligaspiele. In der vergangenen Saison spielte er in den USA in der MLS bei Toronto FC.

Beim AC Malcantone in der Schweiz war der 23-jährige Portugiese Andre Madureira zuletzt aktiv. Er soll die linke defensive Abwehrseite verstärken.

Für die Offensive ist der 20-jährige Kalifa Dembele vorgesehen. Der Juniorennationalspieler aus Mali mit französichem Pass spielte zuletzt in Nordzypern bei Cihangir FK und in der 1. Liga Aserbaidschan. Er ist durch seinen Bruder, der in Bonn wohnhaft ist, zum BSC gekommen.

Es ist nicht ausgeschlossen, dass es heute oder morgen noch einen weiteren Neuzugang geben wird

Add Ryan Gyaki back into the mix with Hansa Rostock. I thought he had been released but he is back with the amateur squad and played in a friendly last week. Should be in the mix this weekend as the Oberliga Nord/NordOst resumes.

Here is a portion of a game report dated 18-Feb-2008:

F.C. Hansa II: Kronholm - Binder, Freitag, Grundmann (61. Pieper), Dojahn - Pett - Albert, Tüting - Menga - Kocer (61. R.Lange), C.Lange (61. Gyaki)

I guess laziness is a lucky man's forsight cause I never took him off the list in the first place. Glad to hear he's still training with a top club. Something has to develop for him at some point.

Some slight corrections for our boys in the German 4th div.

Kennedy Owusu-Ansah - Hertha BSC II (Oberliga Nord/NordOst) (4)

Maycoll Canizales - SC Bonner (Oberliga NordRhein) (4)

Zach Kalthoff - Kaiserslautern Amateurs (Oberliga SudWest) (4)

It appears that Victor Oppong is now without a club. He was on trial with Oberliga Baden-Wuerttemburg side SG Sonnenhof Großaspach but apparently failed a medical or suffered a re-occurence of an Achilles problem and was not offered a contract. Apparently they will support his rehab though.
