Vishnu Singh has been continuing to stock up on newcomers at an astounding clip. Today saw
Ibad Hanis,
Makarim Dhiya Azza,
Taufiqillah Aza and
Marcus Tsum arrive, following a late swoop for
Derek Ang on Sunday night, all on free transfers.
"That makes it nine youngsters so far, and we have an eye on two or three more, just in time for the second round of the Cup against FC Sai Gon." Singh said. "We think it's winnable."
This was followed by the Bunnies' first ever sale, as 22 year-old wingback
Sim Keng Chu went to Italian Division Six side Telsiope HC on a free, after having also been offered a contract by Brazilian Division Six side pançudos fc, as his life took a turn off the beaten track.
Sim admitted that he had never dreamt of making it professionally overseas, and would indeed never have put himself in the shop window had Sentosa FC not been shaken up. "It's all so... surreal." he gasped.
Singh was supportive of his former star leftback making the plunge, for one. "Keng Chu was one of the best we had here, and it was a pity that he wasn't a few years younger, else we would certainly have fit him in the programme."
