(Not sure where to post this so I’ll just post it here. A player at such a low level probably doesn’t need his own thread, or?) American midfielder Kevin Sawchak (born on November 16, 1988 in Atlanta, Ga.) has signed until the end of the 2011 season with the Finnish Kolmonen (4th level) club PEPO Lappeenranta, based in Lappeenranta, South Karelia. He is apparently a University of Alabama at Birmingham graduate who has also played with the Atlanta Blackhawks (PDL) and lately with the Atlanta Silverbacks (NASL) reserves. He was trialing with the Veikkausliiga (1st level) club Myllykosken Pallo -47 aka MYPA but signed with their affiliate PEPO after all. Another player, a Brazilian, who came to PEPO through the same pipeline just made his first appearance for MYPA in the top-flight, so let’s see if Sawchak gets his opportunity, too. In his debut with PEPO two days ago he assisted on a goal scored by the said Brazilian.

Kamani Hill is now on trial with FC Braşov, a relatively successful club in the Romanian 1st tier. http://www.monitorulexpres.ro/?mod=monitorulexpres&p=fc_brasov&s_id=102580
There are apparently 3 Americans battling for one roster spot with Regionalliga side FC Magdeburg. They are Johann Smith, Daniel Ortega, and Gilbert Bayonne (who may be Haitian, American, or Haitian-American depending on the source). None seemed to impress the coach in a recent test match.
Omar Jarun is on trial with Arka in Poland. Kevin Simmons has moved from RW Frankfurt to Eintracht Wetzlar. Marcel Ramsey has transferred to Rot Weiss Ahlen
This one from a twitter conversation (so nothing official) between Stu Holden and some Bolton fan: http://twitter.com/#!/Mawerr Guy asked if Euan Holden was on trial at Oldham, and Stuart confirmed. Edit: Correction the English bloke is an Oldham fan
