Uffie's building himself a side
 for the long term!

Would love to know what potential contracts are being looked at for Gael. He's got to be a top priority for us as the ship may have already sailed on signing Reno up beyond the end of the season.

Also great to have Payne with us for the long term too. Is he still his own agent?

Gael is here on a loan, but as everyone can hopefully attest, Phoenix is the champion of signing Mexican players as they were previously absent from the A-League radar.   So even if Gael does not sign with us next year, others might be lured based on Davila's and his experience over here.
Like some of us on this forum, I consider cultural & family barriers for Latin American players wanting to come to live and play Wellington as significant, much more so than for UK or Continental European players. But there will be those happy to commit for a year even if we end up as a springboard for them to move somewhere else afterwards.
