Three new players for Humble Lion

-

Humble Lion will be looking to bolster their squad during the transfer period with the addition of three experience­d players in order to win the Red Stripe Premier League (RSPL) for the first time. The Clarendon-based club finished in third position in the past two seasons and are going all out to bring glory to Effortvill­e this season.

They are currently in fourth position on 31 points from 17 games, behind champions and leaders Montego Bay United (35), Tivoli and UWI both on 32 points apiece.

“We have to give thanks for the position we are in coming into the new year. The team is a little bit off to where we should be. We are not far from the leaders (MBU), who we have beaten twice this season,” coach of Humble Lion Donovan Duckie told STAR Sports yesterday.

“We have some areas to improve in the team. Right now, we are looking to bring in about three players who are familiar with the league. We want players who can win the league,” he added.

Duckie says no deal is done yet, so he won’t disclose the players’ identities at this time.

Humble Lion next play Harbour View on Sunday at the Harbour View Stadium, starting at 7 p. m., and, Duckie i s l ooking forward to this game.

“We have played Harbour View already in the first round, and although they are struggling, Harbour View is a big club with quality players. We always play each game to win. This is what we have to do in order to win the league,” Duckie pointed out.
