This reporter have seen a number of names being addressed on social media about some players possibly playing in the Rose City with the Portland Timbers. However, the Timbers haven’t been serious and looking to reinforce its offensive attack despite strengthening the defensive backfield with the arrival of a center back as well the arrival of two new goalkeepers.

Still, the prospects of the arrival and rumors of big names coming from Argentine giant Boca Juniors as well River Plate looking to add an upgrade to its midfield and a number of names are mentioned as the team are to looking for a natural number 9 attacker as well as bringing another left back as well a creative midfielder to boost the offensive drive that the Portland squad is in much need!

The names of players like left back Frank Fabra from Boca Juniors is becoming a bit louder, but still is seen as a simple tale or a mirage. The man from Colombia will become a sensation and won’t be a stranger in Phil Neville’s defensive backfield. Considered the best defender in the Argentine first division championship and vital to the Xeneize backfield.

Lately, the name of Santiago Simon, a very creative midfielder with River Plate is becoming a headliner but only in social media. Imagine a lad of that caliber leading the attack in the midfield. It would be huge improvement in the green and gold offensive attack. A man that has become a leading figure in La Banda or Millonarios offensive drive. This player is just 21 years old and with a lot of football and drive to succeed, the ball is in the Timbers court.

A couple of strikers seen so far and being on the Timbers radar as many state on social media include Vicente Taborda currently on loan with club Platense of the Argentine First Division championship and known as the Squids. The man in 47 games the man has managed to score five goals and with a lot of potential to embark on a successful career as the man has a lot of potential to become an instant success in whatever league he plays.

Another new gossip this reporter saw is that a player of Uruguayan descent that currently plays in LIGA MX in Mexico with giants Club America is Jonathan Cabezita Rodriguez. After successful stints with another of Mexico’s giant Cruz Azul, the man currently is looking to transfer to play in any club in Major League Soccer.

In the end, will the Timbers directive become serious and get any of these players to highlight and boost its offensive as well its defensive backfield and become a contender and make Phil Neville the manager many doubted turned into a winner. Time is something the Portland Timbers don’t have and the more they hesitate the moment and the transfers market will shut down leaving the Rose City side without any of the players above mentioned, facts not rumor.
