Player Signing

Wythenshawe’s Vets team has added some extra star power to its squad. The club confirmed late on Sunday evening the signing of former Manchester United captain Antonio Valencia. Valencia is t…

Daegu FC have bolstered their attacking options with the signing of giant Welsh striker Marcus Dackers from Scottish side Kilmarnock FC. The 6ft 7in forward is expected to go straight into the squad for Daegu’s trip to Chungnam Asan on Sunday. K League United’s Stuart Warren runs the (very long) rule over their new signing. (Image via Daegu FC) Dackers arrives at Daegu after a period in the Scottish Premier League, where he scored four goals in 30 appearances for Kilmarnock, with the last of those coming in the form of a late equaliser in a 1-1 draw with Livingston back in January. The striker started his career in the youth setup at Manchester City, before moving on to Brighton and Hove Albion. After failing to make the breakthrough at the Amex Stadium, he signed for League 2 side Salford City in 2021, where he went on to make 15 appearances, as well as enjoying a number of loan moves to non-league sides, most notably Altrincham, Southend United, and Morecambe in the National League. After failing to secure a new deal at Salford, he then moved north of the border to Kilmarnock. The signing of Dackers is also a somewhat historic one for the Sky Blues, as he will be the first British player to play for the club, and only the fifth European ever to do so. In fact, the last player from Europe to pull on the sky blue was some 17 years ago; Serbian striker Lazar Popović, whose time at the club lasted just a few months. (Image via Daegu FC) So what can the Daegu expect to see from their new front man? Despite his size, Dackers has many other strengths and is considered a good all-round footballer. He possesses a good first touch, quick feet, and also pace. During his unveiling at the club’s stadium on Wednesday, when asked what he would bring to the team, he was quoted as saying, “Firstly, I will work really hard for the team. I will look to receive the ball from the midfielders and defenders and bring other players into the play. I will also look to run in behind. I'm very tall, but I have good mobility for my size. I'll look to use my size and my speed as well to impact the game as much as possible.” With Daegu coming off the back of a 4-2 victory over Jeonnam Dragons last weekend, and already boasting high quality attacking personnel in the shape of Cesinha, Edgar, Serafin, Park Dae-hoon, and Park In-hyeok, it will be interesting to see how quickly Dackers can force his way into the starting line up, or if he has to bide his time in an area of the field which is already overloaded. He will certainly offer something different, though, and may well be very useful as an impact substitute over the coming weeks. It remains to be seen how well Dackers will fit into Daegu’s system and Korean football in general, but one thing is for sure: he can certainly give the Sky Blues a markedly different option in the final third as they look to gain promotion back to K League 1.

New England and then Toronto, and we've got the entire travel schedule right here for you. On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira discuss all the Galaxy news you can handle. That includes updates to the Homegrown territories and the signing of Martin Caseres. First, Josh and Eric will briefly get Eric's take on the Seattle game, and the Hammer will talk about the culture of losing that is taking place in LA. Could that change in the season's final nine games, and would you be surprised if it didn't? The guys will then get you through more MLS rules that only muddy the playing field when they talk about eliminating blanket protection for academy kids. But will 54 players make a difference? And what does this look like when USL is right next door? Josh and Eric will then go over the signing of Martin Caseres and what the 35-year-old brings to the table as a defender. When can you expect him to play, and how much playing time could he get? Josh was at Galaxy training today, so he got to talk to Vanney about a wide range of things. What were the big takeaways, and who had surgery to end their season? Finally, the guys are talking about the New England Revolution and what Bruce Arena's side might have in store for the Galaxy.

The Transfer Window is officially closing. But the LA Galaxy have done some excellent business this window. With no DP slots and while somewhat restricted on TAM, the Galaxy were able to land Gaston Brugman and their just announced signing, 22-year-old Riqui Puig. And then they sent Rayan Raveloson to Ligue 1 for a sizeable transfer fee. It's a coup of sorts for an under-fire front office. And it comes on the heels of a solid performance at the first-ever soccer game played at SoFi Stadium. It was a night where the future of the Galaxy was on full display. Hosts Josh Guesman and Sophie Nicolaou will update you on Galaxy news and talk about how all these pieces fall together for the season's home stretch. The first item on the itinerary has Josh and Sophie talk about the Galaxy's confidence after beating Chivas at SoFi Stadium. What did the stadium have to offer, and why was Greg Vanney beaming afterward? And what details can we share about the transfers of Puig and Raveloson? What grade does the front office get for the moves they've made? Finally, what can we expect from a game in Kansas City? Is this another place that, historically, the Galaxy don't win? Is this a "Can't Lose" game with just 12 of them remaining? We've got a great show for you tonight as the transfer window shuts and the season comes into stark focus.

There's plenty of Galaxy news to discuss, there's plenty still to discuss when it comes to the signing of Douglas Costa, and the guys will even talk about some of the news that's going around the league. Like which MLS coach just said his team was "screwed?" Josh and Kevin will start talking about the Galaxy's draw with the Seattle Sounders at the Coachella Valley Invitational. But because the game wasn't streamed, they invited Soccer America's (and other freelance soccer coverage) Scott French to tell them what details they missed for the game. Like why did Scott think the Galaxy deserved to win the game? What problem area does everyone agree the Galaxy have? And where was Rayan Ravelson playing? Then Josh and Kevin move on to finally announcing the details of the Costa Designated Player signing and why Costa was in a private jet today. Plus, will he have to leave the country to get his Visa in order? But there's also coverage of the Galaxy's press conference today and what was said by Vanney and whose name wasn't dropped very much.
