Yes I think Just would be keen to perserve in Europe. Horsens may even get promoted back to Superliga this season. Pijnaker a more likely target.
There are plenty of Aucklanders overseas who could be keen to return to their home town for pro football. Tuiloma or even Mikey Boxall (unsure of his Minnesota contract length) would be good choices, as first club captain.
Fringe AWs like Woud, Logan Rogerson, Deklan Wynne, Moses Dyer, Myer Bevan & Andre de Jong - could all be worth looking at, if off contract. They'd know if they are to be any chance of WC 2026, they can't be playing in obscure leagues like J2, Finland, USL, CPL (Canada) & PSL. All still in their 20s so plenty to offer if good enough. All also pretty cheap and likely to be as good as anyone from Aus NPL or NZ National League. With a Canberra team coming in at the same time, it will be competitive re any off contract Aussie ALM players. The overlap of some of those above NH summer leagues with the A League will make it a bit tricky.
It will take a few years for a new Akld club to get their own Academy up & running, so they will likely poach a few from Weenix. Plus other youngsters like a Willem Ebbinge, Oliver Collioty (spp) etc looking for a first pro deal.
I'm sure the owners would want some star power, especially up front. So yipe Rojas a good suggestion. As others have noted likely too early for the Woodsman, as he wants to stay in the EPL as long as he can. So they will need 1-2 'glamour' visa ex Euro big league attackers I reckon, to drag in some of the big popn of Euro football snobs in the 09 to watch lowly A League football.
The right Chinese, Korean or Japanese visa player would be handy re trying to lure some of Auckland's large Asian popn to games.
