I had a quick look at the FC Dordrecht squad on Wikipedia and it has Quivi/Caomhin Fowler in there. Very little comes up recently in a Google search for Fowler.
However, it looks like he scored for Cardiff 23s in a 1-1 draw today: https://twitter.com/CF11Academy/stat...566439937?s=19

Didn't see this mentioned anywhere.

Sean McDermott has joined Dinamo Bucharest from Kristiansund.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc...tball/46976105. Rafferty joins Preston. Has built a really solid career since time at Liverpool and played lots of games. Good example of getting out of big club early when it's clear there is no route to first team
Very true - with the amount of competition at the big clubs, it's really important for young players to get solid first-team action early, whether through transfers like Rafferty, John Egan and Derrick Williams, or multi-month loans, like Jimmy Dunne . Rafferty is still only 25 so if he can get settled quickly into the Preston first team, he should be on Mick's radar.
And given that our links to Liverpool are being diluted over time, he's one of the last Scousers we have been able to bring on board. There was Darren Potter before him who is almost 10 years older. Corey Whelan is from Chester.
Disappointing transfer window all round from an Irish perspective, one that started with so much promise. At least Aaron Connolly should get some first team action with his loan move to Luton. Other late movers were Michael Doyle to Notts County, Graham Burke to Gillingham (on loan) and David Meyler to Coventry (on loan) - the others have been mentioned elsewhere I believe. Disappointed not to see James McCarthy get out on loan, as well as the numerous youngsters we have at U23 level. I was also hoping Ryan Nolan would have at least got some loan experience by now, he's 20 next month and is still languishing in the Inter U19 team.

I wouldn't call any window that includes Connor Ronan to DAC Dunajska Streda disappointing, but that's just me.
That's actually not a bad move - they're a young squad, chasing down Slovan Bratislava at the top of the Slovak League - it'll give him a chance to play in a more technical environment, rather than getting lumps kicked out of him by a 33-year-old embittered journeyman with instructions to "let 'im know early", to quote Joe Kinnear

Masterson, Whelan, and McAuley released by Liverpool: https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/fir...retained-list?
You'd imagine Whelan will find a League One or League Two club, based on his loan experience with Crewe, but I don't know about the other two
