Every now and again, someone puts up a crazy rumour on smfcboard. Most of the time these turn out to be crap. But regardless, here's one that has stirred up minor ripples on the forum. Dedicated fans may recall that during the 2006 season midfielder Fernando De Moraes, then in super hot form, went over to Greece to trial with then 1st Division club Egaleo. It didn't work out, he came back, kept up the good work and helped us win the title as well as nabbing himself the Jimmy Rooney medal for best on ground in the grand final.
After his unsuccesful stint in the A-League with the New Zealand Knights, and pretty average 2007 season, and now 28 years old, one would have thought that interest from overseas clubs would have been over by now, but enter apparently Ange Postecoglou and Panachaiki, according to someone not widely regarded as a reliable source, with Nando set to go to Greece to trial in about a months time. This would be after the AFC futsal championships - the squad of which one would think Nando would be a part of - but some people have questioned the veracity of the rumour, claiming to have had it confirmed that Nando is not going anywhere. We'll keep you posted on any developments, or the lack thereof.
