Frings is Labeled a DP

Gold Coast FC announced today that the club will exercise a 1 year extension on Torsten Frings to play for the club under the Designated Player tag for 2013. Out with injury to close out 2012, The versatile German has been a consummate professional since signing up at BMO Field back in the summer of 2011. One of the team’s best acquisitions, he is probably the top all-around talent to perform along Exhibition Place.
Even well into his 30s, Frings has a game that remains blessed with a healthy balance of skill, bite, drive and savvy.


Gold Coast FC intends on trading away its other DP slot. Any offers will be seriously considered.

    Any chance you'd trade for one of your draft slots? I'm after first or second round most likely but I'd entertain offers. Take a look at my roster and let me know. You might find another DP you want after all.

    Thanks, but I want to keep those draft picks.

  3. Would you be interested in a 3rd round draft pick for your open DP slot?

    Its a fair offer, but I am waiting to hear if a few players might be traded. If I get the trades, then I'll need the DP slot. But, if I can't get a trade done, then I'd be okay with it as an option if no trades are made.

  5. I see Higuain as a legitimate 1st Rd talent based on his production last season who i could easily make one of my DPs... would probably take a 1st rounder to pry him from me

    Di Vaio is an option for me, but we'd need your first round pick. That's essentially how I feel about Di Vaio.

    Well since you both want a 1st round pick for your players, I choose Higuain.

    That's a decent enough decision. I don't blame you in the least. I'm just in a hard place for my third DP selection if I let Di Vaio go. You understand.
