Not knowing the full story behind it, I don't think that was a wise decision at all. On a positive note, word is, he got his Canadian citizenship. Is he joining the whitecaps or something? 😀 Did seem like he settled, advancing and was on a similar path to JRR and Farsi. Guess we will see where he goes next. jordan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InglewoodJack Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Is he really first team material though? SKC is currently the second worst team in MLS, I’m really wondering where he’d be a fit. Maybe Europe, his dad may have connections in Portugal, maybe he ends up somewhere there. twitter comments are saying that SKC has been hemorrhaging players who’ve caught on elsewhere and coaches who aren’t able to move up the pecking order, so maybe he saw the writing on the wall. Having a dad who’s been around the block advising you, I’m sure there’s some background info on this we don’t know about.

I am hearing that he will sign with a USL Championship team. I am not sure which one. Hopefully, he signs with a team that will mold his immense talent. Once again, managers like Vermes prove to be dinosaurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you should check his wiki page. Dominic94 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Jokes aside the whitecaps should be looking to pick him up, not least if he will count as a domestic. If the rumours of Ongaro signing for WC2 are true they could actually backfill that team with the promise of first team minutes for both of them if they work out. Columbus seems to be a nice spot for Canadians at the moment if not I did see some people talking about CPL being a possibility too. Would probably rather see him at an MLS2 club but a standout season with a CPL club seems to be becoming a decent pathway to Europe too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solsous Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 For those wanting information on Mataeo, just follow his dad. This is how Alex responded to his son's departure from SKC II. By the way, I don't think it was a wise decision. Alex Bunbury @AlexanderBunbu1 · Jul 4, 2022 Replying to @BlueTestamentKC I would like to make it clear! Mataeo didn’t demand a first team contract at any time nor did I! The club and coach didn’t feel that Mataeo is ready for a first team contract. So a decision was made for Mataeo to depart that is believed to be in his best interest. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re in last place, he’s a top prospect and they would rather lose him then try him out in a season where they are going no where ? I’d leave too.

Wait... you have two accounts? @solsous and @Onelessstar ? 🤣 I was just interested as to why that user was confused by my posts, but if that account is also you, now I am genuinely curious as to who you are and why you are reacting in the same thread with two separate accounts. Funny stuff. 🙃 narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
