Ian Henderson-Charnow to Mito HollyHock?


Could Henderson-Charnow be heading to J.League 2 side Mito HollyHock?

Ian Henderson-Charnow, 18, of Brooklyn, NY, may be on trial in the land of the ninjas. This past fall, Ian Henderson-Charnow impressed the soccer world with his attacking flair and hard-nosed tackles in his freshman season at Macalester College. "I identified this freshman, and I said that he could be making an impact with the first team sooner rather than later," said Macalester coach Ian Barker. Jonathan Dachenhaus, fellow team mate at Mac, is rumored to have created the opportunity for the highly-touted centre midfielder. Dachenhaus, who has been training with Tottenham Hotspur FC talked highly of the low in stature Henderson-Charnow to coach Harry Redknapp, who has connections with the ambitious Japanese side. The trans-Pacific move might be good for Henderson. His diminutive stature will integrate well with the Hollyhock side. What's next for Mac? Rumor has it that centre forward Eric Dodd of Iowa has been looked at by Polish side Legia Warsaw.....

Jonathan Dachenhaus to Spurs?


From the dirty south to the upper midwest Jonathan Dachenhaus has taken the country by storm. A solid season for the Macalester Scots may have been enough to catch the eye of Harry Redknapp. When asked about his young left back, Macalester head coach Ian Barker said, "I wish that muppet the best of luck across the pond, I just hope Liverpool doesn't thrash him to badly." Jonathan's only comment was to give the credit for his recent success to his teammate Eric "The Mercurial Doddy". "He just brings out the best in me, that happens when you play with people who are better than you", were Jonathan's exact words.
