NEW Mother of all Canucks Abroad (and domestic)

[supercanuck1010]

Looks like we need to do a little more research on Caolan.

In the meantime, we have a 14 year old Canadian trialing at Borussia Dortmund. Check this out:

Do you know if and what his second nationalitie(s) are?

Caolan Lavery is gone. He was cap-tied to Canada at the U17 qualifiers in 2009. Under FIFA rules he needed to use his one-time switch to play for NI. Same principle as when Lensky switched.

Thanks. Okay, we won't add him then.

Personally I prefer tracking someone in the Swedish first division over U16 youth, haha.

Interesting article here discussing his work permit issues in depth: https://www.anderlecht-online.be/fr/article/25867 .

Apparently there is a second Canadian, who tried his luck there too. His name is Reka Leotrim.

https://www.anderlecht-online.be/fr/article/27199

Wanna help me find some info on them? So far I've got their names

Relly interesting part in the work permit issue article is that it says the Belgium national team would like to have him. He should definitely be followed more.

Het speciaal geval: Zohran Bassong

"Zohran zit in een speciale situatie. Hij heeft Belgische roots, maar is geboren in Canada. Daarom mag hij geen officiële wedstrijden spelen voor Anderlecht. De oplossing is dat hij een contract tekent. Dit kan op 7 mei, dan wordt hij zestien. In vriendschappelijke duels liet deze linkerflankspeler alvast een sterke indruk, zowel op technisch als fysiek vlak."

In this article, it says that Zohran could not play any official matches, until he turned 16 (on Mai 7, of this year), when he would be allowed to sign a contract.

That leads me to conclude that he probably has signed a contract with Anderlecht by now. It also says that he showed lot's of promise, both physically and technically. 

I've checked it on their site and Zohran is indeed playing for their U16. I cannot find Reka Leotrim on their site, my guess is he's no longer playing for them.

Edit: I did find this though:

Doelpunten:

U15: Mathias De Grave (4), Reka Leotrim en Gregory Descotte

De Canadees Reka Leotrim maakte zijn debuut voor Anderlecht. Pas na zeven maanden keurde FIFA zijn aansluiting goed.

 

Which means he did play for their U15 team last season. He got his FIFA-permission only after 7 months! And then scores in his debut for Anderlecht. And a couple of months later and he's no longer with them (or maybe injured?).

If Zohran had to wait until 16 to sign in Belgium it implies that he has an non-Belgian EU passport.

[Fussball_eh]

I talked to Reka Leotrim and he said him and Zorhan are still there and tha tthey are good friends.

[Fussball_eh]

Added our first very Canadian in the Philippines (that I can remember). Matt Silva, who is goalkeeper for Kaya FC #YouthPlayer

[Fussball_eh]

Made some minor updates to the Document.

I have added the position codes for all players that I know the exact position for. If it still says "Defender", "Midfielder", "Striker", then it means I don't know their exact position or haven't checked.

If anyone wants to help me with this task, please do.

Also changed the colour codes from red to white on black. This is to be more accessible for colour blind people.

Yuri Ruh Dos Santos is back in Spain at Club Deportivo Vazquez Cultural www.lapreferente.com/E1534C6562/cd-vazquez-cultural-juvenil

Pretty sure Paco Deckers is no longer at SC Heerenveen. His facebook profile says he is back in Groningen and he is no longer listed on the squad on the official webpage. I have moved him to the "Status Unknown" section for now.

Yuri Ruh Dos Santos is back in Spain at Club Deportivo Vazquez Cultural www.lapreferente.com/E1534C6562/cd-vazquez-cultural-juvenil

That is the 2nd tier of Spanish u-19 football. It's a solid level, lots of B teams of top flight sides, competitive. The team is in his own town of Marbella.
