Last played for TFC U18/19 in the USSDA and TFC III of L1O. He is from North York, but is a Trinidad & Tobago U20 international. He would have to file his one time switch to play for us. He started today for Brondby in a 8-0 friendly win. Bertuzzi44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikerack Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) here is another article https://3point.dk/luke-singh-kan-godt-lide-den-aggressive-maade-at-forsvare-paa/ google translate: Test player Luke Singh likes the aggressive way to defend in Brøndby, where he hopes to impress enough to be offered a contract. There was a new face on the training track, as the Brøndby players Wednesday morning had the first team training on grass. 18-year-old Luke Singh was with. He will be training in Brøndby for the next ten days, and the first training was a good experience, says the young middle man who has both citizenship in Canada and Trinidad & Tobago. - It was a good experience. It is the first time I am in Denmark and there is a different atmosphere, but it feels really good to be here, he says to 3point.dk and explains about the background for the trial training: - They saw me playing in Florida in November in a game where I played 70 minutes. I assume that they think I did it pretty well, since they wanted to see me again. Singh, who can also play at the defensive midfield, does not hide the fact that he wants to impress so much during his stay that it can be even longer. - I was really happy when I heard that the club wanted me here. I have been very pleased and this is what I want. I want to stay here. It is my goal to impress so much that I deserve a contract here. What are you for a type of player? - I'm middle defense and can use both feet. I'm pretty good in the air, can beat good long passes and are very aggressive. I like the aggressive form of defense here. Luke Singh will also be tested in battle, because he has to play with when Brøndby meets on January 13, BSF in the start-up first training match.

So with Singh, a transfer fee isnt required, but the mandatory training compensation is required. And its based on an algorithm of years + age = compensation amount (iirc) Bison44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope they would though along with everyone else in Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jith12 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 Singh's trial period at Brondby has been extended and he has been invited to their 10 day training camp in Dubai. He has also been given a squad number, which is a good sign. Soccerpro, Addona, toontownman and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait what. ...How does a player go on loan to a first team when they don't have any sorta club contract? Or did I missing something. Second. I think he would be perfect for this month's U-23 camp, even if he gets into the first team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the TFC website, he is still listed as being on the U19 roster, so I guess that is how it is a loan move. And yes, I agree completely that he should get a call-up to the U23 camp, although it might be a bit of a stretch to get him to file his switch just for a youth camp. But if we can get him it could be a big win for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it doesn't look like they are playing any games so it is possible that he can join without switching. I'm not 100% sure on the protocol in this case.

Shway Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I feel like he was signed from earlier this year... And they just announced this. Cuz I still don't know how a academy player gets sent on loan, before they have a contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 On 3/6/2019 at 2:21 AM, shamrock said: They sign an USL contract. I think Jahinho's comment is because he was seemingly an academy player (i.e. no contract) and then they announced the loan to Brondby, then a month later they announce he is signed to a TFC II contract. His comment is saying the TFC II contract must have happened before the Brondby loan, but is just being announced now. Otherwise, while he was out of contract he would have just gotten a contract from Brondby. Shway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jith12 Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 Singh has been getting some time with Brondby Reserves and the U19 team recently. He has played twice for the Reserves, a 2-1 win over Lyngby on March 11 and a 5-1 win over Aarhus on March 18, both 90 minute appearances. He also played 64 minutes for the U19's in a 1-0 win over Aarhus on March 30. It's good to see him getting some time. Since the Brondby first team are currently in the Superligaen playoffs, it's unlikely that he'll get any time with them. However, they are also in the semi-finals of the cup, so maybe he can get an appearance if things go his way. johnyb and Bison44 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
