OFF-BUDGET PLAYER ROSTER (ROSTER SPOTS 21 - 31) The salaries for all of these players do not count against the salary cap budget. This roster includes all Generation Adidas (until they graduate from the program) and Home-Grown players (they can stay off-budget even if they have signed new contracts since their original MLS contract). Non-GA/HG players can also be on this roster assuming that they make the minimum salary amount given their years of experience in MLS, so there is no age limit for these players (when MLS called these developmental rosters in the past, players had to be 25 years old or younger to be on this roster - this age requirement is no longer in place). These off-budget roster spots are differentiated by the minimum salary amount. SUPPLEMENTAL ROSTER SPOTS 21 - 24 These players’ salaries will be at least $70.3K. 1.

Hungarian outlet Nemzeti Sport says the Union will pay a transfer fee of 1.5 million Euros - around US$1.82 million - to Honvéd for Daniel Gazdag: https://t.co/lgdx3G5W2h— Jonathan Tannenwald (@thegoalkeeper) May 10, 2021 Looks like we are getting the Hungarian fellow. The article Jonny Tannenstud linked to has a fantastic Hungarian to English translation: Ferenc Horváth, the head coach of the band, said at the press conference: “We have a lot of footballers who like to play the piano, but few who would like to carry it. The balance should be found.”
https://www.philadelphiaunion.com/news/philadelphia-union-sign-defender-alvas-powell Union sign 26 year old former trialist and Jamaica National Team right back, Alvas Powell, formerly with Al-Hilal (Sudan), Inter Miami, Cincinnati and Portland. He was a key contributor for Portland: however, injuries limited his minutes for Cincinnati (2019) and Miami (2020). In early 2021, he joined Al-Hilal in Sudan (former MLS and Jamaica National team striker, Darren Mattocks, joined that league round the same time). Powell and Al-Hilal mutually agreed to terminate his contract after two months as he had challenges settling in to life in Sudan.
https://mlsmultiplex.com/2021/06/18/philadelphia-unions-wagner-przybylko-green-cards/ Wagner and Przybylko get green cards, so there are two open international roster spots. To use both of them, there will need to be some roster spot juggling (there is one open roster spot - could move someone like de Vries to injured reserve).
The Matej Oravec saga continues as he goes from being on loan (and never playing games) for Union II to now being on loan to his former team in Slovakia (FK Zeleziarna Podbrezova - now in the 2nd Division, was in 1st Division in 2018-2019 when he played there). His loan goes through the upcoming 2021 - 2022 season. http://www.zpfutbal.sk/do-podbrezovej-sa-v-ramci-rocneho-hostovania-vracia-matej-oravec/ Matej Oravec is returning to Podbrezová as part of his annual guest appearances The Slovak defender or defensive midfielder Matej Oravec, whom we take in the club as a home player, is coming to FK Železiarna Podbrezová for the annual hosting until the end of the 2021/22 season. The 23-year-old footballer was already active in the Zelpo Arena during the year 2018/19, when he scored a goal right at his competitive debut against Nitra. He was born in Trnava and grew up in Spartak there. With that he also played the group stage of the European League, in the match against the Belgian Anderlecht he decided to win 1: 0. In the 2017/18 season, he won the Slovak title as the "Bílich Andelov" player. It is interesting that he made his debut among seniors in the Fortuna League just against Podbrezová. Before 2019/20, DAC strengthened Dunajská Streda and gradually found a place in the team. During January 2020, however, he was "lured" by the MLS offer and became a player of the Philadelphia Union team. However, he did not receive play space from the coach, despite the fact that the club from Pennsylvania paid a million euros for him. Matej Oravec is also a youth representative of Slovakia, he went through the categories U18, U19, U20 and played nine matches for U21, he scored one goal in them. "We are very pleased that Matej Oravec is returning to Podbrezová. He is definitely very hungry for football. We are glad that he chose Podbrezová from the offers and options he had. We rely on the fact that he will immediately join the team, make a great contribution and help us. He can play as a tracker and also as a "six". We consider my mother to be ours. He knows Podbrezová. I wish him that he is healthy and that his hosting fulfills a mutual purpose and that everyone is satisfied, "says Miroslav Poliaček, general manager of FK Železiarne Podbrezová. Oravec himself is also very happy to return to Horehronie: “I had several offers, but I also have a year and a half valid contract with Philadelphia and Podbrezová was the only one who came up with the possibility of a year of hosting. I am happy for such a contract. I want to play, because I haven't played in MLS for a long time. I come to a familiar environment, I know most of the cabin. It's nice here, I always like to return to Podbrezová. I think if it hadn't come down then, I might have been here so far. The memories of this club are great. I'm looking forward to the new season, "said Matej Oravec.

https://www.brotherlygame.com/2021/...lan-midfielder-jesus-bueno-philadelphia-union Union linked to 22 y/o Venezuelan midfielder, Jesus Bueno, of Deportivo Lara. He plays as a 6 or an 8 and tends to play more on the right (so depth behind Martinez and Bedoya). He has the same agent as Martinez and has a €300 market value per transfermarkt, which was in the same range as Martinez. If there is a transfer fee, it might be relatively low ($250K or less).
What exactly does Jose Martinez bring to the pitch? I just don't see the positives. Only a bunch of negatives.

I swear most of the MLSs Roster/Cap rules exist because some intern couldn't get a spreadsheet to work the way they wanted it to.
