I think he came back Thursday. If I am optimistic, Boca and player are mulling offer.

I don’t know now.

Either @JerryZgoda’s reporting is incorrect, Heath got his dates mixed up or Heath is deliberately gaslighting fans. But Mark Watson returned from Buenos Aires on Monday NOT on Thursday as Heath stated. 1/#MNUFC #ReynosoWatch https://t.co/0EjmQeW72V

Sources telling @TheAthleticMIN that #MNUFC is close to signing Aaron Schoenfeld, pending physical. The former #Crew96 striker spent the last four years in Israel.

At 6’4”, he’ll give an option in the box for the Loons’ crosses.

Pursuit of Argentine attacking midfielder Emanuel Reynoso has advanced “significantly” in the past two days and #MNUFC coach Adrian Heath said “we are optimistic.” Update from @JerryZgoda https://t.co/URUFvJKX9e

Ibarra is going to be on trial at a Seattle.

Sources telling @TheAthleticMIN that #MNUFC has traded defender Wyatt Omsberg to #cf97 for left winger/left back Raheem Edwards. Unclear if anything else is changing hands.

Busy 24 hours

Sources telling me #MNUFC will loan Dayne St. Clair to #USL Championship club San Antonio FC for the 2020 season, paperwork pending. The GK will compete with incumbent Matt Cardone for starts.

The Loons can let St. Clair spend ample time away given Miller/Ranjitsingh/Emmings.

Good move for Minnesota.
Edwards was a solid utility player in Chicago.
We paid $400k for him in 2018, but he was injured in early 2019.
Our idiot coach hated him for some undisclosed reason, benched him and told him to "clean out his locker."
The coach was fired and Edwards' contract was picked up for 2020.
We expected that he was going to be a good back, some had his penciled in as a starter.
Also, he is close to receiving his green card (and I thought he had already received it).
Should be a decent player in Minnesota.

I have no idea what a Wyatt Omsberg is. Can anyone fill us in on this mystery?

Thanks.

Thx.

Wyatt Omsberg was drafted in 18. Was looked at as future CB, but unfortunately rarely got good 1st team playing time. Always looked fine when he played though. Last year, he pretty much played at Forward Madison. I think he is still a good Cb for the future. Hopefully he gets some good minutes with you guys this year.

Did Omsberg and Calvo ever get time together?

I am sure they did once or twice...and at least trained together, but I forget which games.

Good luck to him there. It's a damn shame Heath gave up on him; I think he still has some futbol left in him.

CrankyAvenger · Feb 11, 2020

By the way - from mlssoccer.com:
"A versatile player, Ibarra would be a valuable addition for Seattle as the reigning MLS Cup champions deal with the fixture congestion that accompanies Concacaf Champions League games at the beginning of the season. "

Or for a team with league, open cup, and Leagues Cup games to play while players head off for Euro 2020, Copa America, or the Olympics!

Looks like a formal offer has been made.

🚨🚨 Llegó una oferta formal a Boca del Minessota United de la MLS por Bebelo Reynoso.
*️⃣Es por compra. Negocian en silencio hace más de un mes y, si llegan al número pretendido, Boca está dispuesto a venderlo.#Boca… https://t.co/wpH05y5t9G

According to @Augustocesar22, the offer from @MNUFC is for a loan, with a low purchase option.

Riquelme and his team will decide within the next few hours. Difficult that they accept, they’ll look to negotiate a better deal. pic.twitter.com/A9R4sW3H1j

hmmmm?!

Dead Fingers · Feb 13, 2020

🚨 #Boca have told @MNUFC they would require $7M-$8M for 70% of Reynoso’s rights (Talleres own 30%).

Minnesota United aren’t willing to pay that fee, at most they’ll stretch to $5M.

Because of that, Reynoso will STAY at Boca.@MatiBustosMilla via @cnnradioarg pic.twitter.com/p1HR9iOZcp

Well...maybe...since Fangmeier tweeted that Mark Watson extended his stay in Buenos Aires through the weekend.

It's not over until we say it's over!!!!!!!!
