That is too bad. He had zero time to hit the ground running but certainly didn't impress like I was expecting. Hope he kicks on at Guadelupe another solid league.

Shamit Shome signing was writing on the wall for Aleman. Has he ever played as a winger. The club has a glut of wingers as well!

Aleman and Shome are not the same kind of players. Apart from one or two games at right wing back for Montreal he is a centre midfielder and not a particuliarly creative one. CPL is a step down for him comparatively to MLS but I don’t think he’s gonna evolve as a 10 just because of that.

He is the fourth (Caceres, Velado, Carter)

FC Edmonton haven't announced the status of Doe and Amanda who are also eligible for U21 minutes.

I suppose he will backup James and get some games ? Whitecaps academy isn’t he the same age as Onduze ? They have produced some decent goalkeeping talent.

i suspect  Doe or Amanda or both are leaving for more mins. Weird they weren't announced the same time as chance, marcus and anthony. 4 rosters spots left and need another cb, left back, striker and have 6 or so players not decided on.

Never a bad thing to have more than one promising keeper.

Northern Tribune reporting that Tomas Giraldo's CPL loan will be to FC Edmonton.  That would be Edmonton's 5th U21 player signed for 2021.

[Dominic94 768]

I think he will be in tough to get minutes but if they can’t recall him maybe it’s cause he’s guaranteed minutes ?

FC Edmonton add Tomas Giraldo on loan from Club de Foot Montréal – Canadian Premier League (canpl.ca)

[Ansem 8,743]

No recall clause... interesting

Giraldo really going to start ? Huge for him if true. No idea how good he’s supposed to be.

I dont think Montreal loaned him to bench, even if Olivier Renard said he can't force a club to start his players.

Also, he trained with Shome for more than a year. I'm sure he will start a descent number of games

Supposed to be a part of the best crop CF Montreal’s academy has seen.

JP indicated on his podcast the cynical challenge that there's an 16 year #10 in the Fced academy system that's ready for the first team and would have came to PEI if his covid test came on time
