I'm going with the assumption that Pasquotti will be one of the announcements.

As for the new signing, I genuinely have no idea. Would love to see William Akio but I think he has one year left at UT-RGV.

I'm crossing my fingers for Pasquotti. Such a rock for this team.

As for the new signing, I'm hoping for Ibrahimovic. What of it.

Ibra would be solid, just don't tell him that our real grass is frozen for half the season and probably plays harder than turf.

Ibra would simply demand the ground become soft and it would be so.

One name being thrown around is Bruno Zebie, who was Edmonton's starting RB for most of last year. Plays a similar game to Adekugbe and played two years with Tommy at Foothills.

Would be a fit for sure.

Upon Ibrahimovic entering Atco Field, the pitch would weep with joy and become self-watering.

"According to information Cavalry FC is interested in hiring Brazilian Richard Luca, ex-Santos. He is currently at Aparecidense to dispute the Goiás Championship."

There's a name that hasn't come up much lately, Adekugbe.

He started the season so strong, looked like a motor in play development.
Then he played a game, I believe against Forge, where he was both outmatched, and outnumbered (2 cm vs 3cm).
Did that shatter him? Was he injured? I can't recall.

He was injured in the August 25th game against Forge and missed most of the rest of the season. I think he made 2 starts after that. Part of it is also that it was around that time that we switched to playing 4 at the back which kind of removed Adekugbe's spot on the field.

Assuming OSEG is nowhere near the team (besides likely being the landlord for the stadium), I am happy to see them join.

And with that...#### Ottawa.

I’m glad Ottawa is happening, and so quickly after the Fury situation unfolded. Ottawa is most populous market that doesn’t already have a team in either CanPL or MLS, and having a presence in the capital and another team in Ontario is good for the league.

I’m not sure how the league will go about sharing their hard on between Forge and Ottawa, but it’ll be good banter and make them easy to hate.

OSEG: "A $9 million expansion fee is too high. We feel the club will only be worth $1 million"

The club just posted on Facebook that Pasquotti is back. I had a feeling he would be, but it is nice to see it confirmed.

I knew last week he had re-signed. Tried to subtly share that info without outright spilling it.

Am I the only one that's shocked there is a CanPL Brasil twitter handle?

Did our league just become legit?

That's a fan run account that has been around a while.
