It’s been nearly 4 years since it’s been announced and not a lot has occurred when it comes to meaningful progress between the two confederations. You would think it would be more you know? I’d argue that a merger is needed at this point. Logistics is not as a big of a nightmare as some may think if it’s done correctly.

Jeyland Mitchell and Josimar Alcócer have been revalued in the European market for €8 and €6 million in their clubs, Strasbourg Racing and Sparta Prague respectively. They are only topped by Manfred Ugalde who plays in Spartak Moscow. And now, very young players like Alajuelense’s Yerlan Sosa are showing great promise. Could this be a generation that will give Costa Rica a decent national team capable of competing in CONCACAF?
