THANKS, BUT NO THANKS MLS nixes two Peguero offers, talks continue June 19, 2006 By Dylan Butler BigAppleSoccer.com Associate Editor Major League Soccer has turned down two offers from oversees for Red Bulls red-hot forward Jean Philippe Peguero, according to sources close to the league. But that doesn't mean the Haitian sensation is staying put. MLS, which has the only say in transfer matters, is still negotiating with another club, sources told BigAppleSoccer.com. On Saturday's broadcast on MSG Network, color commentator Shep Messing, who is also a player agent, said Peguero has drawn interest from Norway, quoting league sources. Since arriving in New York from Colorado in a trade for Thiago Martins and a first round draft pick in April, Peguero has far and away been the Red Bulls most dangerous attacking player. He has scored eight goals, including six in seven league matches. Peguero's flair and unpredictability, as well as his ability to put the ball in the net, have made him a fan favorite. The knock on Peguero during his time in Colorado is a questionable work ethic, both over the course of a season and the 90 minutes of a match. Peguero, whose quiet demeanor off the field does not match his on-field persona, is from Port-de-Paix, Haiti and has 10 national team caps and nine on the U-23 level. The 25-year-old played with Haitian First Division side Don Bosco and initially drew interest from the Miami Fusion, but was brought over to MLS by Fernando Clavijo, who was his coach on the Haitian National Team. He is the last year of a contract that reportedly pays him $70,000 a year.

Re: MLS has turned down two offers (Europe) for Haitian sensation Jean Philippe Pegue Norway's Molde F.K. Make Offer for Red Bulls Peguero EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ (MNN) - Earlier this week, sources told NyNjsoccer that a Norwegian club has made an offer for New York Red Bulls forward Jean Philippe Peguero. "So, far I think the bid's up to $800,000," said Red Bulls Head Coach Mo Johnston. Molde F.K, the club that is most actively pursuing the Red Bulls forward, has been following Peguero during his recent goal scoring streak. "They've been watching him the last month and they like what they see," Johnston said.

Re: MLS has turned down two offers (Europe) for Haitian sensation Jean Philippe Pegue There is also Jean Beausejour. He was born in Chile to a Haitian father (a doctor who lives here in the States) and a mother of mapuche origin (the native people of Chile). He was most recently with Beveren in Belgium, but I think he messed up his knee or something and the contract was torn up. He has already played for our NT, as well. Fucien, another Haitian who played in Chile for a while, went to Zaragoza last year, but he's not listed either on their 1st team squad list or their reserves so I am assuming he has left. I think Bana said he moved back to Haiti. Metro
