The club has not said but I have to imagine it’s a combination of salary and DE wanting to play at a higher level. Rumour was some of these Canadian guys were getting paid a ton.

I can’t remember where I heard it, perhaps the Duane Rollins pod a few days after the Fury announcement. hamiltonfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince193 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) So the USL can afford his salary but the CPL can't? ? Edited November 29, 2018 by Vince193 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither league can afford to pay him what he will make at a promotion bound League 1 team. Not to mention that if he can play a few more years at a decent level for a reasonable big team in Europe that has to be better for both his professional and national team career than playing at a 2nd division North American semi-pro level.

You forgot to mention that it's the best 3rd division in the world. (Unless you think that the 3. Liga is better than League One.)

toontownman Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Not the best sign they don't fancy him in league one but they also don't intend to be there very long and do see him as an asset in the championship. CPL could yet be a destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Would love to see him in CPL but if KW in 2020 is really a thing it would be better to see him be their first signing or at least with them year 1. In fact, now I am fantasizing about going to a game in KW sometime when visiting family and seeing my U19 coach in the stands that coached Edgar at the U10 level or so that same year (now I’m dated). toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Too bad he didnt get picked up. Keep going Edgar! Perhaps the SPL would be a destination? He has a ton of experience with British football. Perhaps his agent can use the Sunderland trial as leverage for alerting Scottish teams that he's available?
