Feels like were getting close to a thread title change here.

 

"Kaku at large"

"Have you seen this Kaku?"

"Kaku went out for a pack of cigarettes"

"Wherefore art thou Kaku"

Kaku claims Club América among teams to have bids rejected by Red Bulls before Al-Taawoun move - Once A Metro

 

So there was a Club America offer in addition to Tijuana end of last year.... how does Kaku think he's out of contract if he knows about these deals? Clearly, everyone thinks he's under contract, and he's acting like he's under contract.

I had that wrong CA would have been a free transfer if he went.... but Tijuana was a fee i think.

He knew, and has just  been trying to get out of it on a technicality.

We never received any news about the arbitration did we? Everyone's kinda just started acting like this is all wrapped up and moving on with their lives.

Thelwell said that it's with MLS now, and we should hear something soon.

Not that we're going to fill DP slots, but if we're pretending for legal reasons that Kaku is still a RBNY player, does he take up a DP/INT/Roster spot until this is resolved?

If you scan YouTube looking for Bradley Wright-Phillips, youll find numerous goal compilations, a few interviews and, eventually, an excerpt from the grime mixtape series Lord of the Mics.

I dont think so. You can technically have a DP and loan him out to another team and not have him count against your cap until he come back to MLS. It has been done multiple times ( donovan and Beckham when they were loaned out to euro clubs)

I sort of dont care any more, but I do wonder how options are triggered. I thought contracts were with MLS, not Red Bull direct. I wonder if someone at MLS screwed up.... Thelwell very much made it seem that MLS was handling arbitration.
