    It would make his transfer value go up a bit, but the problem is that the price level and inner logic of the Danish transfer market is well known to foreign clubs and agents, due to how many transfers and how well scouted Denmark is ... I mean, in this summer transfer window there have so far been transfer sales worth around $48 million in the Superliga, both internal transfers and sold to foreign clubs and the foreign offers made on Sabbi from abroad have so far not been on pair with the offer made by Brøndby that was rejected. Simply because they know that Hobro has one of the smallest budgets, they would like to sell and they will be the one of the prime candidates for one of the 3 relegation spots.

    Both Sabbi and Cappis played the full 90 minutes for Hobro when they lost 0-2 at home to Brøndby, while Yosef Samuel and Deedson were warming the bench.

    Transfer news :

    During the match one of the TV3 Sport commentators said that 2 more Americans are now on trial at Hobro and will be playing for the reserves .. they also made the joke that it must be because the road to Hobro stadium, DS Arena, is Amerikavej (America road) :

    "The Amerikavej" sounds like a nice nickname for this club, that is becoming Yank Central in Europe.

    Sadly it's one of the worst in the league.

    I know I was cut short and respect your ruling, though I personally believe in the unlimited freedom of speech ... but I also hope you will respect that I'm now going to link to another thread in this forum regarding this issue :

    Transfer news:

    The Brøndby Director of Sport has revealed that their former German U-21 NT winger Hany Mukhtar has gone abroad to negotiate his personal terms with a club, rumored to be an undisclosed MLS team ... Mukhtar has been injured and left out of the Brøndby squad so far this season and if he is to be sold and move abroad, it's not going be before the winter break the Brøndby Director of Sport said.

    But this could still be good news for a Sabbi move to Brøndby, because Brøndby have also send their former German youth NT attacking midfielder Besar Halimi on a trip to Germany, to negotiate a deal with either Hansa Rostock or Regensburg and Sandhausen from the German 2. Bundesliga, so they may need to buy a replacement, though their main problem quite clearly is their defense, which yesterdays 0-3 home loss to AGF Aarhus also confirmed.

    Today I watched the LA teams go at each other and in my opinion they are not above the league that Sabbi and Cappis play. I still see in MLS a lot of control issues or lack of quick passes. I think both Sabbi and Cappis can hang in a friendly.

    Denmark is an under-appreciated league. IMO they're about at the strength of the Eredivisie, and by far the strongest Scandinavian league, because right now the Allsvenskan and the Eliteserien are at their weakest.

    Agreed. I've enjoyed watching the Superliga on ESPN+. However, I've wanted to see something like a 12-team Scandinavian Super League. Fours clubs each from the Sugerliga, Eliteserien, and Allsvenskan. Two get relegated to their home country's domestic league and the two champions from those countries are promoted. No idea how qualification for Europe to work, though. In my head I could see: FC Copenhagen, Midtijlland, Brondby, Nordsjaelland (Superliga), AIK, Malmo, IFK Goteborg, Hammarby (Allsvenskan), and Molde, Rosenborg, Valerenga, SK Brann (Eliteserien). Outside of Molde and Rosenborg picking the other two Norwegian clubs is the hardest.

    Transfer news :

    According to Hobro Director of Sport Jens Hammer they still consider signing the young American defender Rayshaun McGann who made a good impression when he got to play a reserve team game as left back for Hobro while being on trial.

    The Hobro reserves were fielding 3 guest players, Rayshaun McGann, a Zambian striker by the name of Romaric Pitroipa and the young Danish striker Anton Søjberg from the Danish 2. Division (3rd tier) side Brabrand IF

    But it was especially Rayshaun McGann who they found to be so interesting that they consider signing him as a prospect for the future.

    - "Right here and now we look good in defense with Sandi Putros and Jacob Tjørnelund, who will soon be back [from injury], so it is not a position we need to reinforce right now" the Hobro Director of Sport said, but continued.

    - "So what we're considering right now is whether or not to sign him [as a prospect] for the future."

    - "He has a really good left leg, and he made a couple of good runs up-field and is good offensively, while at the same time being careful defensively. I like that."

    Jens Hammer confirm that they would like to have a further look at McGann, and so far his visit at Hobro is indefinitely.

    The second test player Romaric played 79 minutes, but he has already been sent back.

    The problem with the Superliga is not lack of good players, but that too many of them are sold at a fairly young age, and at a rate so that their coach is not able to slowly build up a team that is not too inexperienced to do well in the Europa Cups. When you have to start over building a team, over and over again, you are going to lack the needed stability and experience, even if you are fielding some very talented players.

    Both LA teams have 2 players each that would be the best attacking player in Denmark.

    Are you sure ? ... I'm mean, Teemu Pukki who right now is the top-scorer in the English PL, was at no point the best attacking player in the Danish Superliga the 4 years he played there before moving to Norwich a year ago ... and arguably not even the best attacking player for Brøndby, that would be Kamil Wilczek who was Brøndby 'Player of the year' in 2018. and non of the two have managed to become topscorer in the Superliga.
