    12 to 0?

    Is this a pickup game with the fans?

    How would he qualify for a work permit?

    Isn't he an Italian citizen? Plus doesn’t his brother play for Leicester City youth teams?

    Remember Brexit? An Italian passport now helps as much as a US one.

    His brother got there before the deadline.

    What the hell is the point of this? He's going to play on their youth team more, despite doing well enough in Austria last year and having epl teams sniffing around?

    this situation has me really bummed out. booth seems like a kid who would be a huge upgrade to the lletget/roldan portion of the pool and could get there fast with the right club situation. sadly running down his contract with bayern 2 in bundesliga 3 aint it

    Booth was a prime candidate to be loaned out this window. He is arguably at the same level as Busio and Tessmann. Playing for these super clubs have it's downside though and Booth seems stuck with a club he prob will never play meaningful 1st team football for. It seems that the idea used to be that playing for a team like Bayern II over in Europe was a better launching pad than the MLS. Well that may not be the case anymore.

    He’s got 10 months on his contract so may have some good optionality coming up.

    Where can he go from here? Any windows still open for loans? Maybe back to RSL?

    I can’t imagine any party is happy and content with this outcome, though it hits Booth the hardest.

    FCB II got relegated to the 4th tier for this season.

    If he can get a loan to MLS I think that’s still better than languishing in the 4th division.

    How far back might he be on the depth chart to gauge if some combination of congestion and injuries would see him getting a bit of playing time for the first team? If everyone stays healthy though then this doesn’t play out well for him.

    Hopefully he gets to play in some more DFB-Pokal cup games.

    Deserved. Booth is a good playmaker, like Ledezma but more versatile.

    hard to believe he is anything more than a warm body unless he signs (signed?) that contract extension
