The transfer window is upon us and with a number of players set to move now and in the summer, we would like to take you through a list of the players who could potential leave their clubs when their contracts expire at the end of the season.

At look at the heavyweights making the list across the big clubs reveals that they are set to lose very influential players in the summer.

The Salary Cap has struck again.
Brisbane Roar have lost Thomas Broich, Henrique, Matt Smith and other key players in recent weeks and as a result despite continuing to boss possession, key goals have been conceded and a lack of attacking penetration has seem the team suffer three defeats in a row.

To build a football brand in Brisbane, the Roar had to win last night. While the crowd had already halved from 20,000 to 10,000, Roy Morgan found this week that Brisbane is the most watched (TV) soccer team in the A-League. A shock for Melbourne Victory perhaps.
That was one disappointment from last night.

Linz preserved a point away at Lustenau with a comeback strike from Brazilian playmaker Henrique, and a highlight-reel penalty kick save from keeper Thomas Mandl.

Early in the first half Brisbane had crazy misses. Besart found himself clear twice. The first time he fell over. The second he took too long. Then Issey failed to take his chance.
Then Newcastle settled into their 3-4-3 formation with Ruben Zadkovich outpacing Erik Paaratlu, Broich having his quietest half of football ever with a few well timed elbows in the head from Kasey Wehrman, and Newcastle playmaker Ryan Griffiths occasionally looking dangerous.

When Dario brilliantly hit the back of the net on 5 minutes it looked as if at last Brisbane's time had come. Broich had said earlier in the week that they had been lucky. Perhaps that had run out?
But no. On when the pressure. Fox had asked would Brisbane be able to chase this season, well yes.

Brazil's U-20s get their Pan-American campaign under way when they take on Argentina this evening in Guadalajara. After taking the Under-20 World Cup in Colombia earlier this year, Brazil start as one of the favourites but are without the likes of Neymar, Oscar and Lucas Moura who were not called up.

Linz remained in the chase for the Erste Liga title with their second straight win, thanks to an own goal and a fortunate strike from Luiz Henrique.

The Anfield hero and homophobic abuser of Graeme Le Saux is to take that big step from playing to managing after being named as Muangthong United boss.

On a Saturday night in Peru earlier this year, Brazil went to Arequipa's Estadio Monumental de la UNSA needing a win to clinch the South American Youth Championship. Coincidentally, their opponents were Uruguay, the very team that they needed to overthrow.

So the U-20 selecao boys have done it once again, winning the World Cup for the fifth time last night (officially tied with the senior team!) As mum would say : "PARABENS!!" It was a hat-trick from Oscar which sealed the deal for the boys, ensuring they got the 3-2 victory over colonial brothers, Portugal.

That's an awesome photo of Bruno Uvini and Henrique from Brazil's U-20 squad congratulating Danilo on his first call-up to the senior seleção yesterday! Sure, it looks borderline cheesy and posed, but who cares?!

Handshakes aside, the U-20 guys have an extremely important agenda to settle to today : The World Cup final against Portugal!

Mind you Mukadi, in an unusually perceptive moment said that Thai fans wanted a Thai coach.

Tampines Rovers (in yellow) gave themselves a good account against their much-fancied Thai opponents, Muangthong United (in red top), in this AFC Cup Group G encounter at the Jalan Besar Stadium.
The Stags managed to absorb the Twin-Qilins' slow turbo play up front, while catch them on the break, which worked in 23rd minute when veteran Aleksandar Duric finished off the ball in the box following a latched-on pass off a Hassan Sunny's drop-kick.

He replaces Carlos who was got rid of before their first Thai Premier League game and he replaced Rene who led the team to the Thai Premier League last season.

As far as getting there goes, this is the big one.

Durante los últimos tres años, Traffic ha usado al Palmeiras como principal trampolín para que sus mejores futbolistas dieran el salto a Europa. Porque entre otros muchos negocios relacionados con el fútbol (todos los que se puedan imaginar, desde la gestión de derechos de TV y marketing hasta la administración de clubes, pasando por la representación de futbolistas), Traffic cuenta con una cartera de jugadores de su propiedad, inscritos en el "modesto" Desportivo Brasil (club creado por la propia compañía), y a los que cede a otros equipos para que se muestren y se ganen un millonario traspaso.
