Apparently an American named "Griffin" is on trial at SC Wiedenbrueck in Germany, where Matt Dallman currently plays. I'm also told that another Yank is training there and I'm trying to confirm that. So absolvierten Carsten Strickmann, Aleksander Knezevic, Giovanni Taverna, Christian Zodrow die 1. Halbzeit, Pascal Hofbüker, US-Gastspieler Griffin, Diego Bortolozzo und Frank Scharpenberg die zweite Hälfte. Link: http://www.scw2000.de/index.php?a=386 Basically the article says that Griffin (Leonard, maybe? Or his little brother, Maxwell? Though he still has one hear left at UCLA I think) played the second half of a match against an Arminia Bielefeld youth team. Also, might a well make the obligatory pre-emptive joke: I don't think it's this guy, as it's the wrong kind of "Fussball":
It looks like "Griffin" is Portland U. senior D/MF Jeff Griffin. That would make sense, since he played at the same school as Dallman. https://www.portlandpilots.com/sports/msoccer/rosters/displayPlayer.asp?PLAYER_ID=1015 He's a 1986 from Arizona. The supposed second guy isn't there.
Kenny Bertz at Elversberg According to the this article in Bild Kenny Bertz is on a trial in Elversberg and, according to Goulet, played a "strong game" at Mannheim. http://www.bild.t-online.de/BILD/sp...-fruehform/testspiel-waldhof,geo=3595850.html His agent is Brian Eylert, who represented Matthäus when he was in NY.
Hey sweedespeed, got an update on Griffin by chance? Last I can find is a summer tryout at Siegen, but he doesn't appear to be at the club now.
