LOANS - likely gone Jonathan Sirois Rocco Romeo Sean Rea Jared Ulloa Rodrigo Reyes RESIGNED - staying Andrew Jean-Baptiste STAYING (in my opinion) Raphael Ohin - local Federico Peña - local William Akio - should be priority Moses Dyer Austin Ricci Andy Baquero - should be priority Stefan Cebara Daryl Fordyce Brett Levis - history with Dos Santos at VWFC? Tony Mikhael - young, has potential Rafael Galhardo - one more year? Better with Dos Santos 50/50 (in my opinion) Matt Silva Keven Alemán José Galán - does he play another year? GONE (in my opinion) Amir Soto - unused, gone Masta Kacher - didn't seem to workout in 2021 Arnold Bouka Moutou - didn't seem to workout in 2021 GK Options? Yuba-Rayane Yesli - 2021 USport pick, bring him back in 2022? Svyatik Artemenko - former reserve goalie - winning with Guelph United (L1O) (and UGuelph?) DEVELOPMENT - retained on dev contracts Caden Tomy - can he remain on development contract another year? Jacob Tsai - reserve goalie Unless Sirois has something better to do than sit on a bench or play reserve team football I can see him coming back. Another loan elsewhere may be in works though. Romeo is a project I'm not sure Dos Santos wants to take on even with AJB back in the lineup. Akio and Dyer top of the priority list. If either gets away it's going to feel like Rob Gale 2.0 to me. Don't feel there needs to be a ton of turn over if targetting certain positions can be successful in the off season. johnyb and MrsC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I'd be fine if that was the last we've seen of Fordyce. Though, like many players, he seemed to have a bit more of a defined role under Dos Santos. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately these matches were cancelled after visa issues causing the team not to get into the UAE. The match against Algeria was not against their main team headed by Mahrez (they actually have WCQ today), but instead against their "local" national team that will compete in next month's FIFA Arab Cup. I've seen some comments from South Sudanese supporters on Akio's vlog and they seem to view him as an integral part of their future. He's someone that I hope gets another season in the CPL and then can be sold to Europe. He grew a lot from start-finish in his first professional season. I wonder if the South Sudanese diaspora can lead him to spend his offseason playing in Australia. johnyb, Trois Reds and Cheeta 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonovision Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 He seems to have taken the approach of using his abilities as a low-level pro to travel the world. More power to him. He was barely good enough to start in his first season at Valour, and these abilities only declined with age and injury. It's great that he can leave on his own terms, but I don't think the club would be inviting him back in a playing role. Maybe this is xenophobic or ageist, but I don't think CanPL roster spots are best used on late-30s Spanish journeymen benchwarmers.

Cblake Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Romeo had the option year on his MLS contract declined by TFC today. Could definitely see he returning to Valour, or maybe head back to Europe where he was playing in Denmark with HB Kobe, this kid will have options.

Likewise he to will have options beyond the CPL, but a return to Valour is not impossible. Either Romeo or Dunn partnered with Jean-Baptiste would be a solid central pairing. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

top cheese Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 No offense to Galan but it’s time to look for some stability in life rather then being a suitcase in low level soccer leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
