Kruger Out For Start of Season

Legendary Francois Kruger has been ruled out of Racing Guantanamo's first match of the season with torn ligaments in his right foot.

Kruger, who had been taking part in a friendly soccer game with his son, accidentally caught the ground with his toe.

The freak injury has now thrown Guantanamo's start of season preparations into disarray with the Mighty Oranges now on the hunt for a new goalkeeper.

In the outfield however, Guantanamo look set to have a formidable midfield, with Joe Tighe and Martin Kessler both signing up, as well as young gun Jon Falconer coming back into the squad after a season on loan with the Blue Hypes.

Luke Turner comes back into the squad after his loan with Rambo Caledonian Athletic Thistle to partner up front with Joel Hamling.

In defence, captain Andy Smyth will partner with Ryan Platten and Chris Hingston with the three forming a good understanding over the last two years.

This season looks to be one for the history books as Guantanamo gear up for their assault on the B-Liga championship.
