    Derek Cornelius has signed a 3.5 year contract with Serbian Super League team FK Javor Ivanjica. They are currently in 6th place in the Serbian table. He has been playing centre back recently with Neumunster. Serbian league is not a bad place at all for a 19 year old especially if he can get playing time. Very good record of developing players and a league where even the flawed players who won't rise higher have a good technique and tactical awareness.

    Have to say, I'm loving what League1 Ontario has brought to the table development wise in its short history. Ewart, Johnathan Grant and Luca Uccello are all examples of young talent who are able to get contracts through showcasing their talents in the league. Hoping we hear that Adonijah Reid has signed somewhere during the course of 2016.

    Yep and in a case like his, where he was raised in Chile, I personally would cheer him on if he does make it into Chile's set up. Kind of like how I'll always support Cristante even if he doesn't play for us just because he does have a Canadian connection.

    Thanks for looking in. I agree that we should be tracking. Would love a player like that to join out set up.
    At the same time, I will hardly be dissapoined if he plays for Chile. Since he was born in Canada to Chilean parents and then grew up in Chile, I would easily understand his decision. Now, if he grew up in Canada and played in our system and then left and opted for Chile, that would be hard to swollow, but ultimately I believe the way to go is to take it with grace, rather than resorting to character attacks and whatnot.
    The reality is that we need to continue making our program attractive to players with multiple options. Our country is multicultural and our government has a policy that encourages multiculturalism. It is the same cultural phenomenon that's contributed to the popularity of this sport as I am concerned. It is our blessing and our curse. So, we just have to continue deal with it by making Canada an attractive option.
