So play well enough in CPL and see where this could lead.

Necaxa has signed Acuna in Liga MX

Aww boo..Shame, such a classy player but was always a temporary landing spot as is evident by his move. Still surprised Caps didn't try and take him on loan after they were knocked out of the Island Games. Look forward to see who Ottawa replace him with.

Still find it a little out of step that Atletico has not really made any player announcements and arguably they have the most wholes/needs for depth of any side

Kind of like Pozuelo in MLS, this guy was another level. If he wanted to stay in Canada he would have been a great pickup for any of the 3 MLS sides but clearly he wanted to go home.

Question: How exactly does one go about securing (to the extent possible right now) season tickets? I've already provided my contact info to the club, and am a founding member from last year. I see that they're accepting deposits, but I'm wondering if I actually need to put one down considering I put down a deposit with my founding membership last year. I've tried to get a hold of the club box office, but it looks like TD Place is shut down due to the pandemic restrictions.

Bet Kevin Aleman is heading to Ottawa. Recent Shamit Shome article mention how he will be playinf further up the pitch

Atlético Ottawa re-signs Canadian midfielder Antoine Coupland – Canadian Premier League (canpl.ca)

Another loan from the Club de Foot

[Unnamed Trialist 6,304]

As Alavés has not extended Viti's loan and have thanked him for services, he's back to being an Atlético Ottawa player. A lot of fans on social media were bothered that the team did not sign him, I guess he had a good stint.

Will he stay with the team? I am not sure he really has too much time to look for alternatives now.

I guess this means Facchinieri will not be with the team this year, pretty sure he started all of their games last year no ?

I would think/hope Ferdinand starts

Faccinerri was loaned and didn't play well.

Ferdinand plays mostly LB but he can help as a CB

So maybe he comes back ? A quick count of mine showed potentially 18 young players between the Cdn mls rosters that need to play. They won’t all get loaned but CF MTL and TFC have a big midfield glut and VWFC have a few prospects like Pecile and Faccineri (maybe back to Ottawa ?)

Thought he was underrated last season. Happy to see him back in the league if he is.

He exudes excitement in his video message. 

Must have been a hugely frustrating year as it doesn't look like he was able to play at all last year. Excited to see what he brings.

[MM3/MM2/MM 907]

Great, I was hoping he would be back, to see what he brings, a number of the CPL u23 signings from last year who didn't play because of COVID have signed on for another year.

Now, to get out and see some of these players in person.
