The passing of Dennis Marshall didn't only affect Costa Rican players. It also affected Marshall's teammates at Aalborg BK, and one American paid tribute to the late defender this weekend.

Chris Rolfe honored his former teammate with the game-winning goal in Aalborg's home-opener, a 2-1 win versus AGF Aarhus.

Less than four months after making his U.S. national team debut, German-born goalkeeper David Yelldell has made the jump from Bundesliga 2 to the German Bundelisa after signing with Bayer Leverkusen.

Yelldell enjoyed a strong campaign with Bundesliga 2 side MSV Duisburg, helping the club reach the German Cup finals last season.

Soccer America reports that Joe Enochs, whose playing career spanned 376 games and 12 seasons in Germany, has been named interim coach of Bundesliga 2 club VfB Osnabrueck.
Enochs is one of the most popular players in Osnabrueck's history -- he had a testimonial game in his honor when he retired -- and he has been coaching the club's under-23 team.

One week to go.

One week to MLS First Kick 2011 and the opening of a do-or-die season for the Los Angeles Galaxy. I recently wrote that 2011 was Bruce Arena's MLS Cup or Bust season.

But of all the teams that could be considered contenders for MLS Cup at this point, you have to like the Galaxy to bring it all home.

Much has been said and written about the relative merits of the front lines of the inaugural MLS rosters for the Portland Timbers and Vancouver Whitecaps.

On an impressive weekend overall for Americans Abroad, U.S. U-20 MNT forward Bobby Wood made his first ever appearance for the first team of Bundesliga 2 side 1860 this weekend. Wood entered the league match against Duisburg in the 82 minute with his team down 1-0, and helped them find the equalizer four minutes later.

Welcome back Kenny!

The past few weeks U.S. soccer fans have bemoaned the loss of national team players like Edson Buddle and Robbie Findley, players who, while not top-notch international players, are U.S. nationals whose presence gave MLS some respectability internationally. However, while we on this site and others were complaining about the losses, we have not had a chance to celebrate a major pick-up for the American league.

Eurosport secures exclusive LIVE rights to Bundesliga in 22 European territories until 2015

This is the first in a series of articles I am writing to find out where some of Premiership's past players have ended up and to celebrate their time in the English Premier League. First up, it's Tony Yeboah.

And who can ever forget the impact the Ghanian born striker had on the Premier League?

Since the World Cup there has been one major debate amongst England fans. Youth. Every one of our 60 million football experts has the idea of how we should bring through swarms of talented players to annihilate competition. Who should the FA be looking at to find the blueprint to dispel a 50 year enigma.

Breaking this weekend was the surprising news that 2010 MLS MVP candidate Edson Buddle was poised to make his long-discussed move overseas. What made it surprising was that the move was not to Birmingham City, which is where he had long been rumored to go, but to FC Ingolstadt, a Bundesliga 2 club that is currently in danger of being relegated to the third German soccer division.

U.S. World Cup striker Edson Buddle has been in Europe for most of the winter, in search of a big payday after finishing out his MLS contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy.

He has found that payday, and it has taken him to Germany.

Buddle is set to sign with German second division side FC Ingolstadt, sources told SBI on Saturday evening.

Let's catch us both up on some happenings from the past two days:

• Anyone got a pretzel?

Brat-City!

Multiple reports have Edson Buddle en route to Germany to sign a deal with Bundesliga 2 side FC Ingolstadt. Quite an American contingent has recently traipsed through the Bavarian side.
