Kang Undervalued
Rancher Rabbits midfield draw Kang How Loong left on a free transfer to just-registered Indian fourth divisioners Fernandes FC today, attracted by their connection to England's Real Chelsea Stars. Head coach Shashank Reddy would make three more signings after him, recruiting forwards Andrea De Stefano and Florent Strupler, and Portuguese veteran Manuel Maria Jorge in quick succession.
That the immensely-talented 17 year-old received only two offers, the other from Belgian IV.22 side RFC Assassins, highly puzzled Rabbits scout Ooi Long Ming. "Kang has raw acceleration, a quite complete playmaking mind, and fair ability running in from wide to boot." Ong mused. "It must be a very tough market for youngsters out there."
