    I saw that, but it doesn't explain much...and I mean the exchange of jersey's...come on...we gave them a jersey that is no longer used by our senior team - wish TFC would have given them our main kit

    followed...i actually went on google maps to find the facility; not sure what the terrain is, but ur recent pics kind of help; neat little place - not to far from Porto. Do you think Jordan will struggle with a language barrier to start (assuming Jordan doesn't speak Portuguese of course)?

    Ya.. the guy is a fairly high up TFC guy.. and Europe is known for exaggeration. I just didn't want to rag.

    the trofense's shirt is also the shirt of last season.

    in one of previously posts in official Trofense facebook:

    "No âmbito da parceria entre o Clube Desportivo Trofense e o Toronto F.C., o avançado Jordan Hamilton reforçará o ataque do Trofense até ao final da época, por empréstimo da equipa canadiana (4º classificado da conferência este da MLS Soccer).

    Uma das maiores promessas do futebol canadiano, Jordan Hamilton chega à Trofa através de uma abrangente parceria entre Clubes, que permitirá no futuro um possível intercâmbio de jogadores. O Clube canadiano vê no emblema Trofense uma porta para dar a conhecer os seus jogadores na Europa e para permitir que adquiram no campeonato competitivo da 2ª Liga outras competências e valências. .
    "

    I can conclude that both teams have a partnership and in the future more players of Toronto fc will go to Trofense. Toronto see in Trofense a great oportunity to development of his players and show them to european teams.

    here is the place of training center:
    https://www.google.pt/maps/place/Tro...aed6407aff0e51

    yeah, not far from Porto. Trofa is in district of Porto. The distance between Trofense stadium and FCPorto stadium is something like 25km.

    i think in the beginning will be hard for Jordan, but we have a very young team and certainly his age not will be a big problem and our coach don't have fear to give time of game for young players. i read in an interview that he gave for a sports newspaper that he liked the city, it's good. portuguese language is hard for beginners , but i think everyone in team can speak a little of english and will be good for Jordan.

    I agree with this assessment - seems like a good place to try to showcase our guys that might have future European aspirations...certainly hope we can help push for top half of the league with our help; maybe we'll loan 1 or 2 guys a year and push for a promotion to the top division!

    Are there restrictions on foreign players in the Portuguese league?

    i hope so, but is a very hard challenge.


    no, we don´t have any restriction with foreign players, only the B teams.


    just for curiosity, in the last year we play against FCPorto for Taça de Portugal in Dragão stadium:


    and in 2007 we play againt Benfia for the campionship

    Sabetti reporting that Tyler Pasher is trialing with Minnesota Utd. Looks like TFC passed on him (again).

    yeah, i agree with you. portuguese is a hard language to learn.

    but we have in our team many young players and players who already study in high school, of course they can talk a little bit english. will be a great for jordan.

    They can turn pro and sign as a homegrown player with the Reds at anytime. For example Matt Stinson left the academy to attend Winthrop (NCAA) and eventually signed a first team contract the January after his freshman season.

    Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!

    Why go in the first place? In case they don't get a senior contract?

    Interesting move for Eli especially since I heard there were a few teams also in Portugal pushing to sign him. Wondering if he couldn't get dual citizenship quick enough to have that EU passport.

    Better to go and begin the process, get in a season and be prepared than sitting around. As with Stinson, you can always change your path/plan at any time.

    Not exactly nice words to hear the League One club's director say he's tipped for a great coaching career at the age of 20... what does that say about his ability?

    Dario Gradi is a bit of a coaching legend in England, i'd take any compliment he made about me.
