Westerlo moving in I am hearing that DC United and KVC Westerlo are in discussions over a transfer that would send teenage homegrown attacker and former U.S. U-17 winger Griffin Yow, 19, to the newly promoted Belgian club. No deal as of yet.— Brian Sciaretta (@BrianSciaretta) June 9, 2022 Yow had fallen behind Jackson Hopkins at DCU (Hopkins is on the U.S. U-20 team) and United was looking to get something for Yow.
I'm choosing to believe he is somehow related to David Yow and that is all I have to contribute to this thread.
🇺🇸 - Na de transfer van Bryan Reynolds bereikte Westerlo ook een akkoord met DC United over Griffin Yow (19), hij landt vrijdag in België. 🇹🇷 - Ook de Turkse verdediger Ravil Tagir (19) lijkt op weg naar 't Kuipje.📰 https://t.co/ROrv1fNSE9#kvcwesterlo— Kersten Steurbaut (@ksteurbaut) June 23, 2022

Yow is playing almost every match with the U21s. Match report from 11 Oct match had this gem - " Griffin Yow was one of the tormentors for Lommel at the front. On a pass from Glenn, he first narrowly missed the goal. (63')"
Match with U21 vs Royal Excelsior Vitron U21 finished 1-1 today. No match report yet to see if Yow played.
Played for the U21 team in aU21 0-2 Cup victory over Lierse Kempenzonen. From the match report, it looks like Griffin Yow was very active and had multiple dangerous chances. In the 68' he scored the goal to make it 0-2. " It was the credit of Griffin Yow who finally managed to finish a personal rush from the right in goal. 0 – 2 (68')" There was a U21 league match last night, but no match report yet.
Did not play in the U21 match against Lierse. I wonder if he is injured. From the match reports, it seems like he is quite active and plays well when he plays.
Yow entered in for the 2nd half of a 1-2 victory over Sparta Rotterdam today in an International Friendly. Match report here, no mention of him except that he came on.
It looks like Griffin Yow will get his senior team debut this week. The same article that said Reynolds will be out for a month, said that Yow will at least make the bench.
Tough loss for the team. I did not watch it, could Reynolds have made a difference? Good to see Yow on the bench.
Next match vs Genk 17 January 2023 2:40 pm EST. Reynolds will be missed in this one. Yow might make the bench.
