Ryan Fante

Spending his early career in Canada where he played in the Ontario Soccer League, and Canadian Soccer League,[2][3] Fante sealed a move to Singaporean outfit Sengkang Punggol in 2010.[2] The Canadian then recorded his first start in a 1–0 defeat to Albirex Niigata S[4] and registered his first goal in a 1–1 tie with Beijing Guoan Singapore.[5] Deployed as a winger or second striker, Fante often outdistanced opponents but failed to score on numerous occasions.[6] Because of this, the forward was demoted to Sengkang Punggol's Prime League squad but there too he was unable to score goals in abundance.[6] By mid-season 2010, the club decided to release Fante due to his goalscoring ineptitude.[6]

Around a year after his release from Sengkang Punggol, Fante transferred to Australian semi-pro club Valentine Phoenix FC with Canadians Adrian Butters and Shondell Busby.[1] In spite of saying that the standard was not as high as in Singapore,[1] he stayed there for a few months before going to Mongolia to play for Khoromkhon FC in June 2012.[7]
