Interesting season ahead for Union with a new manager, Boniface going and Teuma, Van Der Heyden, Kandouss and El Azzouzi already gone. Could be a Blessin in disguise though...

And we’re forbidden by UEFA to loan them anyone too.

Hopefully they can recruit well in absence of our shared data (does Starlizard fall under the UEFA restrictions as a third party?)

Why and where have the players gone

Why and where have the players gone

Teuma - Stade De Reims
Van Der Heyden - Real Club Deportivo Mallorca
Kandouss - K.A.A. Gent
El Azzouzi - Bologna FC 1909
Imagine all these clubs can pay more €€€ than Union.

No

Result of Bloom being forced to reduce his ownership?

Boniface will get big fee but see the others have been sold for £2/3m which seems so low for a club that has done so well. Something is wrong when after such a successful season and getting into Europe 5 and maybe more players want away. Looking like unless things change they could well find it hard to continue to compete at top of the league.

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Blimey! Early start - but a good one!

 

[Slum_Wolf]

Good start to the season. The new head coach, Alexander Blessin, seems quite a lively chap.

They've been packed away until the next home game now.

Anyone know which TV channel has the Belgian league this season?
Nothing advertised on Mola Tv.

Are we forbidden? My head wants to think we can still loan players there, they just can't be registered for Europe.

The red bulls, the pozzo family, man city, they all loan players everywhere within their "family".

Still struggling to believe UEFA can tell a player they aren't allowed to work somewhere (I get the Europa League squad registration thing, just).

Yes, we are forbidden to make any transfers/loans with USG until September 2024.

Of course the player can go to work there. The consequences will be the that the teams are thrown out of the European competitions.

That's crazy. Isn't that what a European squad is for Keep it seperate from the league if need be? I don't really get that decision. We can loan to every other team in the UEL though if we wanted....? What's the difference

Joao Cancelo played in the CL against Man City for Bayern last season, whilst still employed by City. (most recent example I can think of).

Good question, Mola seemingly still have the rights but nothing listed yet and Eleven/DAZN don't seem to have bothered with the UK coverage for Belgian football this season. You can watch the usual stream via the BET365 website if you have a few quid sitting in an account with just the crowd noise...

That's never a pen tbf (2mins 34seconds in) that's such a weird decision!
