The Major League Soccer (MLS) Franchise, Philadelphia Union has offered a Loan Contract until the end of the 2014 season in November to Harbour View FC’s (HVFC) striker, Brian Brown to add to their attacking force. HVFC has accepted the terms of engagement as the forward departed the island early this morning to complete all final arrangements.
The 21 year old Golden Boot winner with eighteen (18) Premier League goals plus two (2) in the knockout competitions has rattled up an impressive twenty (20) goals in only his second season with Harbour View FC.

He returned last month from a one week trial at US Major League Soccer (MLS) Franchise Philadelphia Union organised and supervised by former HVFC and Reggae Boyz striker Damani Ralph, now a certified FIFA Agent working with Global Premier Management Ltd., during HVFC’s off season. Philadelphia Union is home to players, including HVFC/Sporting Central Academy former goalkeeper Andre Blake who was the #1 Superdraft Pick for the MLS this year. Brian went to impress, scoring goals consistently in training sessions and interacting positively with Administration, players and staff of the football club.

Other MLS Franchises, as well as clubs in Scotland, Norway, Hungary, Ukraine, Israel, Finland and India have been expressing interest for the striker’s signature as his talent was being tracked globally. Brian has been shining especially throughout the last season, there is a bright future ahead and we believe he will continue to shine.

Congratulations to him and his family.
