Anyone have any info on Josh Ruckdeschel? Last signed with Lleida Esportiu in Spanish Segunda B (3rd Tier) in July 2015 but there's no mention of him on their website.
I see he has USA/SPAIN&NZ on his Nationality profile - that could be handy as an overseas vs local player
He is also a big lad with a Judo background - his video shows him passing nicely with the outside of both feet.
2000's Eastern Suburbs - Auckland (Wynrs too)
2012 Florida State Team (National Age Grade Champ)
2013/14 at ELON University (the Phoenix) as a Freshman - then he must have left?
2015 (August) - Genoa International School of Soccer - with Nic Del Moro - another Kiwi

Congratulation to Giss players signed with Lleida cf Spanish segunda B.
Bedridden Ryustemov 20yrs from Bulgaria
Joshua Ruckdeschel 18yrs from USA
Nicolas Del Moro 20yrs from New Zealand
After all my gas bagging - I see your point - after Lleida he disappears - not on their website team list - neither is Nic - hopefully just a visa or clearance glitch??? However, the Bulgarian guy with them above, B Ryustemov pops up on their transfers in page - wonder what is up with the Kiwi?
Hope this helps - or you already know this - good luck to Josh and Nick!
