Far East United shuffled the deck for the upcoming The Soccer Tournament.
With both Stephan Schroeck and Roland Mueller now unavailable for the competition slated for June 1-4 at Cary, NC, the team is enlisting Bienvenido Marañon to provide offensive spark, joining fellow Pinoy Anton del Rosario.
The former Philippines international shares about their new addition, "We are happy to have Bienve Marañon with us in Far East United. We all know his quality and impact. Fans saw that recently when he joined Bonifacio Global City in the Asia 7s where he scored four goals in one match. We all know what he has done here in Philippine football on a club level as well as for the national side. With Bienve in uniform, we are excited to show what we can do in this international seven-a-side tournament with quality competition."
Slotted in Group D alongside West Ham, Dallas United, and Culture by Mo Ali FC, Far East United will be relying on their ASEAN core of Safee Sali, Charyl Chappuis, and Greg Nwokolo, alongside Japanese defender Masaki Watanabe, among others.
They also revealed that the side will be coached by Thailand-based Englishman Matt Holland.
Notable teams also participating in this $1M winner-take-all competition include Borussia Dortmund, Wolverhampton, Wrexham, and Necaxa.
