horsefly 5,301 Posted March 10, 2021 Excellent news! Well done Onel! We all know how much that will mean to you and your family. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,358 Posted March 10, 2021 Really pleased from him, they've probably been hindering their chances badly by sticking to their non-overseas policy - hopefully it goes well for him! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Paddons Beard 2,786 Posted March 10, 2021 I bet secretly he is disappointed to have been overlooked by Cuba , but playing international football for Cuabn will a great consolation. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,820 Posted March 11, 2021 Don't think he has been quite at his best yet since his injury, so this will give him a boost. Should really help him and also us, to have an Onel who is buzzing with confidence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wcorkcanary 4,781 Posted March 11, 2021 He has been good enough for Cuba for years....they refused to play him previously as he lived/ worked abroad. It has been a classic example of Cuban ' cutting off nose to spite face' policy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Should really help him and also us, to have an Onel who is buzzing with confidence. Think it's safe to say he would still be one of the best players in the Cuba team. The fact that he was playing in the Prem and they did not want him them due to their own stupid rules was ridiculous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
