A bit of a worry if he's left the USA without signing. Maybe another club has entered the fray?  Hopefully not, and it's just a case of tying up the loose ends...

I really hope he has signed and the club are just waiting for clearance before they announce it like they did with Moraes?

Then why wouldn't he be training with us?

Presumably without a work permit that would be illegal, and especially in Trump's USA!!  He'd be over the wall to Mexico before he knew it!

Maybe it's a red tape/process? Are you allowed to train with a club when you've not got clearance to play/work in the country?

Some suggestion he’s over here with the club’s liaison officer house hunting etc while the paperwork is finalised.

Another suggestion is that we're waiting to tie it in with the kit launch later. There's no rush is there?

I liked Kierons 'non quote'. I found it tantalizingly enigmatic.

With how thorough medicals are these days, you would think that would all be done over here too.

It's almost like the piece of music with no music in it.

On topic, since he's in the States and we haven't heard anything untoward, I'm staying positive.

Why are some panicking over this? There is a work permit to be resolved. He’s probably discussed terms. The price is agreed. I don’t see an issue.

SSN just said he’s flown back and it’s still work in progress so shouldn’t be any problems as long as the work permit is sorted.
