After a few years bouncing around clubs in Fifth Tier Germany, Eldin Demiri seems to have joined FBK Karlstad of Sweden's Division 3 (5th tier).

 

One of his squad members looks like Kyle Bekker's doppelganger.

Ivan Mamic is in camp with newly promoted to the Croatian 1stdivision team Hrvatski Dragovoljac. Not sure if he's signed with them yet.

What are the current transfer rumors for various players right now?

Even better, he was offered a contract

Interesting

Been thinking about Aramis Kouzine, and see he has just signed for a new team. Last I heard he was going through Chemo for bone cancer. I guess Aalborg dropped his contract. 

https://www.transfermarkt.es/aramis-kouzine/profil/spieler/562478

He is now at Shakhter Karaganda in the Kazakhstan top flight, signed late last week. 

I see Canucks Abroad updated this just today. http://www.canucks-abroad.ca/

Philip Reis - Goalkeeper

Perhaps it has already been talked about before but it was new to me when I came across a post on Instagram about this kid moving over to Portugal to play with Gil Vicente U19s.  I was able to come across this article below which included an interview and was posted in early June. 

One of the questions asked was:

MDC: Are you a guy who's also Canadian, if Canada asked you to play for the national team would you take it?

PR: Yes, if I get that opportunity, I accept.

Obviously he is probably still far from first team football and the National team but thought this post was newsworthy.

I don't know anything about either player and I can't see anything on Aalbork BK's side about these signingns.

However this is a very good level.

What does not figure is that they say 2nd division, when Aalborg is a major club in the top flight. And their affiliate is not in the Danish second tier. But it does seem the new third tier is called the second, the Herre-DM 2

So will have to dig around to see if they are in the affiliate team, in 3rd tier.

Looks like they moved on

Khakizadeh Mahyar is with FC Dushanbe in Tajikistan (1st tier).

 

[The Real Marc]

I think the above may be in the running for our most obscure Canadian abroad posting, after Ryan Fante's time in Mongolia and those three guys that played in the Caymans for a while.

I didnt realize he'd been in Spain these last years, in academies and clubs around Valencia. 

Including at Silla, which is where Benito Floro started coaching. 

He's a Canadian-Iranian keeper.

17 year old Shawn van Yaden (ヴァンイヤーデン ショーン)  is a Japanese-Canadian who plays with Yokohama U18.  He is a 6 foot 3 defender.

More on Hempelmann:

https://www.ntsoccer.com/NitrosNews/CurrentNews/employee time tracking

Pablo Hemplemann, now former North Toronto Nitros College Prep player, has begun his professional journey after signing with Dutch club NAC Breda. Under Head Coach Rogier Molhoek, Hemplemann joins the Under 18 squad boasting some of the best youngsters in the Netherlands. After a successful stint on trial with the club, Pablo caught the coaching staff's eye due to his creativity and goal-scoring from an advanced midfield position.

The guy clearly has talent, and luck was on his side😀

Issey Nakajima Farran at age 37 keeps playing, now signed for amateur side C F Cubelles @cfcubelles https://m.facebook.com/cfcubelles/

That's south of Barcelona and near Sitges where he was after leaving MLS. Issey's parents are still around I think.

Cubelles is in Segona Catalana, that'd be 7th tier I guess. I'll probably be able to see him, their group has teams in greater Barcelona.

Ronan Kratt (2003) has signed with SSV Ulm U19 in Germany.

Callum Weir from the Yukon has signed with a German 5th tier side.

Erik Hermanns and Mohamad Shamkhi have both signed with FK Buducnost in the Serbian 2nd tier.

Club from the Belgrade area called FK Budućnost Dobanovci apparently rather than the famous FK Budućnost from Podgorica in Montenegro. Hope all goes well with their Future:
