Meet the squad
We have a pretty decent squad, we have a 28 man squad, having an average age of 25, so we are not old but we are not young either, and that is good, since balance is key for everything, We have 12 contracts that are ending by the end of the season, but 6 of them are loan players at our club, so we may have work to do at the end of the season, the personality of the squad is mainly balanced so we are good also at that deparmetn, finally, the wage bill is not broken, we only have 2 wages that are higher that our wage cap, 250,000, one is on loan and he will go when we have the opportunity and the other one is a newcomer.
I like to have a small squad, mostly composed by 3 player per position, 2 for the first team and a younger one from the B team or u23/19s.
This is the squad:
GK. Loanee Matouš Trmal will be starting under the goal. Miguel Silva will also have gametime.
RFB/WB. Claudio Winck will be starting by the right hand side of the defense, hoping he will be key for our attack this season, Zainadine Junior will be our backuo but since he can´t play as a wingback the vice captain will be having little to no gametime in the season. We need to prioritize this position at the transfermarket.
CB. Leo Andrade, Matheus Costa and Goncalo Cardoso will be the 3 starters at the moment, they can help us in both ends since the 3 of them are taller than 1.85m, Moises Mosquera, Rafael Brito and Joao Alfonso will be the backup but will have a good amount of playtime.
LFB/WB. Vitor Costa and China will both compete for the starter spot, both of them will have plenty of game time this season.
CM. Diogo Mendes and Stefano Beltrame will both be the starters, we have Bernardo Gomes as their backup, hoping the youngster can get a fair amount of playin time and develop really good.
W. We are stacked here, Xadas and Andre Vigidal will be both the starters down the flanks, but will rotate with Pablo Moreno, Joel Tagueu, Joel Soñora, Edgar Costa, Percy Liza, Geny and Antonio Zarzana.
ST. One of the weakest areas, since only Jesus Ramirez and Leandro Cardoso are natural players in this position, Tagueu, Moreno and Liza can also play here, We need to look deeper at the transfermarket for this position.
