    According to Yanks Abroad, Mael Corboz is on trial with MSV Duisberg who were recently relegated to the 3rd tier. I'm guessing this is a continuation of the Hammers relationship with Duisberg; a few weeks ago one of their players worked out in Wilmington.

    According to Wikipedia, Corboz has French-born parents meaning he would be eligible for an EU passport via parentage. So if he impresses there would be little to get in the way of his transfer. The Hammers tend to let their players move on when they are wanted as we are clear in our role as a club that develops players and moves them on.

    Selfishly I hope he stays because he's been my favorite player this season, but I can understand him taking the opportunity. Besides, the way he was playing its doubtful we would have had past one season anyway.

    unusual arrangement, particularly since Wilmington and Duisburg share ownership. Clearly, the clubs felt the same way. A solution has been found, and Corboz has signed a two-year contract with third division Duisburg.
    His new team is currently top of 3. Liga after five games played.

    Duisburg's next game is on September 10, against Werder Bremen II.
