    By the way -- still uncertain he's a Yank, but he was with the Sacramento Republic for a recent preseason match.

    http://www.sacrepublicfc.com/sacram...-affiliate-san-jose-earthquakes/#.Uxo1jRBdV7c

    If he signs with them, I guess we might at least figure out if he's a Y -- though of course he'd then not be A.

    According to FuPa, there are two Americans at TSV Karlburg -- (presumed, at least by me) brothers David and Gabriel Nunn.

    There's an opportunity for a pun here that I'm going to pass on for now.

    Definitely Malaysian, but still can't tell if he's a Yank somehow. Though the name might be a tip.

    Clearly a first-language English speaker, & seems to have ties to St. Louis (he's an Albert Pujols fan & likes another St. Louis related page):

    He does, but its entire content seems to be a link to his Transfermarkt page. Figured it made more sense to lump him in here until we are sure rather than bump it.

    A random Facebook post from March 2012 lists the following among foreigners with their respective clubs,:

    "Xelajú MC...
    David Orozco (USA) de origen de Guatemala...

    Deportivo Mixco...
    Carlos Muñoz (USA) de origen de Guatemala...

    Deportivo Guastatoya [of Vincenzo Bernardo fame]
    Roberto González (USA) de origen de Guatemala"
    https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=395211363822536&id=261366900540317

    Wikipedia also lists Gonzalez as American: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deportivo_Guastatoya

    David Israel Orozco likes Xelaju on his Facebook page, which is largely in English:

    A few sites say Wealdstone FC's '96 Orlando Rodriguez is American. He exists and is at the club but I don't know more at the moment. I think this is a seventh-division club.

    Some guy just told me the Spurs GK is American...Brad Friedel or something. Apparently he is from Ohio or something but I doubt it based on his accent. Whatevs :D

    Whoever he is he is playing against Benfica in the Europa League at the moment.

    The quickest way to know for sure if a GK is American is to see if he has hair. Does this guy have hair?

    Wealdstone are indeed playing in the 7th tier, although they look like they will be promoted to the Conference South.

    Here's the guy in question:
