Atlético Ottawa sign Osah Bernardinho - Player identified by central scouting system
Canadian Premier League side Atlético Ottawa have signed Osah Bernardinho. The 23-year-old was signed from Belgian side Westerlo but spent this season out on loan at KSK Heist in the Eerste Klasse Amateur (third division).
Bernardinho signed with Atlético Ottawa after being identified by the CanPL's centralized scouting system of young internationals (age 23 and under). The setup is run by the league’s soccer operations department and the 21st Club.
“We are delighted to present Bernardinho as an Atlético Ottawa player,” Atlético Ottawa CEO Fernando Lopez said in a club statement. “He is a powerful attacking winger that can play in both sidelines of the pitch. He is an athlete, physically very strong, consistent, fast, with good passing abilities, vision and solid dribbling skills. We are sure he will contribute to the team recovering balls, on the creation of plays, exploiting the offensive game and assisting and scoring goals.”
