“We have had requests for 5 of our players from overseas and we do not wish to stand in their way and will look at the benefits of any deal from both the players and the clubs perspective. Meanwhile, we are talking to several existing and former T&T internationals about coming home. So it’s difficult to picture where we need to strengthen at the moment. “
Very interesting - hopefully these clubs are steps up?
Actually, one of our players declined to go to an MLS club, stating that he wanted to help Central finish in the top two! But, yeah, decent European clubs and MLS outfits.
what ? are you for real .. did you all try convince that player to take the mls option when he said that ?...FS i hope you all get some players to Europe ...
It was really frustrating! Imagine how many players would like that shot....and there was talk of a transfer fee of US$50,000 or more! However, it is the player's decision ultimately and he needs to ensure the move is right on various levels.
I'm confident that there will be one or two nice moves.
It is very frustrating about the UK situation. We've had several chats with UK clubs who want our players up to Championship level. When you consider that Trinibagonians are members of the former Commonwealth,and have supported the "Motherland" for centuries, yet they have less rights to work in UK than, say, Germans who we fought in two major wars last century, it doesn't seem very fair. I have nothing against Germans, or any other nationality, but Commonwealth citizens have earned the right to work in the UK in my opinion.
