Apparently Bogota is part of a multi club set-up where their owner also owns DC United and Necaxa, as well as Swansea City.

2026 official World Cup year now, you'd think the dispair would have dissipated by now wouldn't you? I've got no interest in the current crop now. Not sure how Palma or Arriaga are doing at club level and I don't really care. How's the young blood doing, anything from all these youth players scattered about? Has Keyrol's goalstreak come to an end?
Another brace for Keyrol, scored 2 to beat Norwich u21s 3-2. Read a rumour Fulham are looking at bringing in Ricardo Pepi in January. At this point I'm gunning for all American strikers Keyrol is looked over indefinitely. Suriname have signed Leeds striker Joel Piroe, these Carribean nations are no joke now... as we already know from qualifying smh.
Luis Suazo scroing for Braga u-19 with a 3-1 win over Chaves. Also, Rochez seemingly delivering with what playing time he gets in Portugal. Shame he was frozen out as I think he might be too old for consideration for the next process.
Moncada scores on his debut in Colombia. Sucks profoundly that we aren't in 2026, but I haven't been a little excited about the future prospects in a while. This one seems to be a stronger crop than previous.
Dare I say there seems to be a real shake up at the top too. This Spanish sporting director seems like he could be legit, we would dictate the manger will be... legit.
Got to stress this again, this new generation has to rid itself of all semblance of domestic based players. No disrespect to Jerry Bengston, I appreciate everything he's done at international level but when you see winning another league title with "el Rey de Copas" you have to bury your head in your hands. Georgie Welcome is still at it too, these guys are from 2014... 2010 even! The rebuild has to rid all but absolutely necessary holes that can't be filled by international based players. No gurantees these crop of foreign players will make it but have as many involved in youth setups to cultivate the change that is so drastically needed.
Speaking of which, out of all these players identified there seems to be a lack of CBs. Denil's career has taken a complete nosedive and he was the only nearly reputable centre back. I hope this doesn't proof our achilles heal yet again.
Bienvenido to Cincy, Mathias. 🔶🔷FC Cincinnati 2 have acquired forward Mathias Vazquez on loan from Honduran side FC Motagua. Details: https://t.co/YpRsptM8Zo pic.twitter.com/MpdThymcHJ— FC Cincinnati 2 (@FCCincinnati2) January 30, 2026
It’s so crazy to see all the small modern stadiums that Nicaragua are building right now, they are leaving the rest of Central America in the dust.
Push comes to shove, even if it doesn't work out maybe the competition alone will be enough to see him return to Motagua a bit better/more improved like Palma to Vida?
Moncada doing really well in Colombia at the moment, hopefully he can maintain this form. Got the guy out in Uruguay as well, I think South American leagues are a great option to develop. Seems like Palma and Arriaga are both starting to flat line a bit now, given how they started the season. Not sure how Leo Posadas and Nayrobi are doing but both should be getting to the point where they debut professionally now. Posadas is 21 so I'm thinking he can't be a world beater, unfortunately.
LAFC 4-0 up before halftime, 6-1 defeat for La Maquina. Yet more glory at for our clubs at international level.
Just as Kervin made it back into the Levante starting 11 he ends up being sent off, for a second yellow dissent after an initially yellow. It was a derby against Valencia so emotions were high but this sort of professionallism is all to common in his career. He's been suspended for 3 games and missed today's 1-0 loss to Villarreal and will also miss a game against Barca. Shame really.
We need to start calling Moncada "the light" or something as this guy is the only one shining for us now, haa. Someone called on here, whatever about Keyrol this lad is the one to watch.
https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/a-new-start-honduras-nt-road-to-wc-2026.2121041/page-44 The most alarming difference to me between both brothers are their body types at their respective age. Moncada looks like he's tacked on more muscle since leaving and still has room to grow. He simply passes the eye test in every way imaginable. Meanwhile Keyrol to me almost reminds me of Tyler Roberts body wise. You can tell he didn't come out with as much of his dad's genes like Derek did. Finally the intangibles factor seems to weight heavy in Moncadas favor. Remember he was left to be raised in Honduras. He didn't live as posh as Keyrol did back across the pond, so I think Moncada's will to succeed is more than Keyrol's. I feel like we've seen stories like these before.
