Rumors, Trades, Drafts, Garber Bucks and a Lod of the usual (The Transfer thread)

Source tells @ELROLONW this morning that Luis Amarilla who was initially being targeted by Portland Timber, is also being looked at by Minnesota United.
This paraguayan striker played last seasons with CD Universidad Católica and was the Ecuadorian League Pro's top scorer.

Luis Amarilla, top scorer of the Pro League (19 goals) with U. Católica is in the sights of Minnesota United. The MLS club is negotiating with Vélez Sarfield, who owns his pass. According to Argentine media, the Amarilla pass is valued at $ 1.6 million

 

Outside of Gk, what do we need? 5-6 new (or maybe re sign old bodies *cough Batman)?

2 forwards
2 fullbacks
1 10
Maybe 1 more winger?

 

For @MNUFC fans... looks like your team is looking at Deportivo Cali man Christian Rivera. [@elcorrillodemao]

Luis Amarilla no volverá a #Vélez en este mercado de pases. Tiene seis meses más de préstamo en Ecuador, pero tampoco seguirá allí. Tiene varias ofertas, pero la más firme es la del @MNUFC, de la MLS. Sería nuevamente a préstamo con cláusula similar a la que tenía en U Católica. pic.twitter.com/L49cuRbkSa

Loan, option to buy.....still waiting on some more official confirmation that this is real.

 

Also, I forgot to mention this- it’s very likely that Luis Amarilla, the 24-year-old forward who had a wonderful 2019 playing at Universidad Católica in Ecuador is likely to join Minnesota United in the new year. #MNUFC ❄️ pic.twitter.com/7iobcRVOZ4

Confirmation that Luis Amarilla's contract with #MNUFC will be a one-year loan with Minnesota having an option to purchase after the year.#AmarillaWatch https://t.co/7jWXnWVmfm

reminder...no confirmation yet.

 

So, can we say that the CBA is affecting how slow the off season is going?

 

This rumored target has transferred to Club Tijuana.

 

Eerie 2018 feeling. #panic

Besides Hairston from the DQ trade and Ranjitsingh from the waiver draft, I think that is it.

 

Welp, looks like @ColoColo ultimately countered @MNUFC’s offer and it appears that Luis Amarilla has reached an agreement to join Colo-Colo. #MNUFC #AmarillaWatch https://t.co/MbWw2qRTTP

5-8 games in when they have less than a goal per game.....maybe, just maybe, they will get around to their usual panic buy.

 

Montreal talking to MNUFC before their pick

 

We are taking Montreal's pick. Not sure for what?

 

I can confirm that #MNUFC holds Joe Hart’s discovery rights, per multiple league sources. The Loons are still in the market for their starting goalkeeper, as Vito Mannone’s loan from Reading has expired.

Oooops....not happening now. Montreal want their pick back.

 

#MNUFC takes Noah Billingsley, a right back out of UC Santa Barbara. Among notable former Gaucho players: Michael Boxall and Ismaila Jome.

Carter Manley left in the offseason and the Loons needed a backup right back. Solid pick in the same range as Chase Gasper's spot last year https://t.co/fP3olIi2Mi

Other places are calling him a left back. Not a clue which is right?
