BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (3 Feb 2016) – Defending S-League champions DPMM FC have retained Rafael Ramazotti from Brazil and also Paulo Sergio of Portugal for the new season which begins on 13 February.
Following the change in ruling with regards to having only three imports as against last season, DPMM have decided to retain the duo while excluding Bosnian defender Boris Raspudic and Northern Irish midfielder Joe Gamble.
But there’s still no word yet on another Irishman defender Brian McLean.
“The majority of the team are made up of the same imports and local players with two or three new young players to fill in the rest of the slots,” said DPMM team manager Ali Momin.
“We are still selecting and will finalise the roster soon.
“We received invitations from neighbouring countries to play but we haven’t decided where to go because of the limited time.”
DPMM’s first game of the new S-League season will be against Singapore Cup and League Cup holders Albirex Niigata (S) FC in the Community Shield at the Jalan Besar Stadium in Singapore.
