It’s definitely not only English clubs when it comes to Liberato Cacace. The man himself confirmed that there was communication from Juventus while a couple Spanish club suitors have been mentioned in the past as well. Napoli is the dream move for Libby, who knows if that may happen one day. It’d be absolutely massive if it did. But the same thing applies to Cacace as does for Bell and more: Cacace is a regular starter in the Belgian top flight which is a top ten league in Europe. Scouts are watching. We already know that. They still would be even if we didn’t. And you can already get a jump start of the LIBERATO CACACE | WELCOME TO ___ youtube compo vids starting with this banger of a clip right here...

Those are the three guys (Garbett, Bell & Cacace) who feel most poised for a move. You never know when a hefty transfer might come along, Sarpreet Singh and Libby Cacace can both tell you all about how sudden those things can happen, but as it stands that’s the goss. Cacace’s arguably another year of strong performances away from moving on from Sint Truiden but they are a selling club. Their Japanese owners like to use STVV as a foothold in Europe for Japanese players and are very much of the buy low sell high mentality. You may recall a lad named Takehiro Tomiyasu from the OlyWhites came vs Japan. STVV bought him for €800k and two years later sold him to Bologna for €7m. Now he’s on the verge of a move to Tottenham.

That’s how STVV operate and they would have signed Cacace – for a fee similar to the initial Tomiyasu one – with the idea that there was a good chance they could make a profit off him down the line. Compared to Bayern Munich buying Sarpreet Singh for something close to that amount where they’d be happy to let him go for a free if it came to that because they really honestly do not need the money. They’re merely out here taking wild punts on players in the hope that, from a large group of prospects, a couple of them might prove good enough for their first team someday.
You don’t need to move clubs to progress your career. Marko Stamenic was late to arrive in Tokyo because he was in Austria on tour with the FC Copenhagen first team. He played once for them last season and seems poised to play a good chunk more next time if that’s anything to go by.
Nando Pijnaker has had to settle for reserve team footy at Rio Ave to date while George Stanger did get a few Scottish Premiership games under his belt last term for Hamilton Academical... both those clubs have been relegated so first team spots could be a little easier to access for those two now.

Ben Waine re-signed with the Phoenix rejecting interest from Coventry City in favour of more first team games. Gianni Stensness was superb in Tokyo and we’ve seen worse players than him make the jump to Europe from A-League clubs. Michael Woud will have promotion as the number one target for Willem II this season after missing out in the playoffs a few months back. Callum McCowatt and Eli Just play all the time for an upwardly mobile FC Helsingor team in the Danish second tier (and hopefully a fit-again Dalton Wilkins will join them more often too).
The whole scene is absolutely nuts. Flying Kiwis Transfer Seasons have been surging for a couple years now but there’s a chance, only a chance mind you, that the next month or two could be pure madness.
