  • Haworth, Jonke to compete in NASL in 2014


    Guest

    It was a busy day of player signings on Wednesday for Canada's two NASL teams.

    Ottawa Fury FC, who will begin play in the league next season, announced former Montreal Impact draft pick Carl Haworth as their first-ever Canadian signing. The 24-year-old striker was picked up in the MLS Supplemental Draft in 2012 and played for Canada's Olympic qualifying squad that same year. He moved on to FC London in the PDL, then eventually Ottawa's PDL club.

    Meanwhile, FC Edmonton announced that 28-year-old striker Frank Jonke will be returning to Canadian soil after four years playing in Finland. Jonke, who earned his first men's national team cap this January, played last season for FF Jaro, and has scored 33 goals in 110 appearances during his time in Finland. [PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]

    The Eddies also announced that American goalkeeper Lance Parker will be back in 2014 -- potential good news for the club, but not so much for the playing time of 25-year-old Canadian goalkeeper John Smits.
