Keeper Marc Kouadio gets the win allowing one goal for Dayton. Trevor Martineau's goal slump continued as he failed to score in his 8th consecutive game (and last game of the season) after scoring in the first 2 games of the season. Always good to see our boys doing well, surely a GA contract is coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison44 Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 How can Vancouver not claim Amanda as a homegrown, ala Jay Chapman/TFC? He was with their youth side and played for WC2. Anyone with knowledge of the MLS dark arts have any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amanda isn't eligible for a GA contract, he's a Senior and he's too old. It's Whitecaps HG or someone will have to take a flyer on him as an international. De'Andre Kerr's rights should be moved.

They’re picking out of the Toronto area... i think we might continue to see a situation like Rowe and Buchanan where TFC is too crowded so another option has to be explored, or where TFC’s net misses or can’t catch X player. lot of talent in that area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA deals are only for players that are top underclassmen as voted on by all MLS teams prior to the draft. Players from within MLS academies are ineligible. He's from TFC's academy, therefore the only deal he can sign is a Homegrown. If Toronto doesn't want him, they can trade his HG rights to another team or make him wait until he's exhausted his 4 years of eligibility and try his luck in the draft... if its still around by then.

But it doesn’t explain what happens if the league wants to sign him to a GA deal, when TFC have his “rights”. GA deals are given to junior or lower ncaa players, who have been seeked out by the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that key point. However each is able to give GA like contracts to top academy players - Ayo Akinola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footyeh Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) Ayo is not on a GA contract, he's on a regular homegrown contract. The term only applies to college players from outside the MLS system whereas he was in the academy. Edited April 5, 2021 by Footyeh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he keeps doing well they won’t sign him, because their academy is producing players? Amanda was one of those academy players, but he had to go elsewhere to take the next step.
