Fantrax doesn't have him listed on a team, he has no page on BB Reference which is generally required for him to be in the Fantrax database. I'll request him but I doubt they'll accept an X post as proof he's actually signed.
Our rules specifically say he must have a team listed on Fantrax.

I've seen the Sportstrac and plan to send it to Fantrax. He's not the only 2026 IFA they don't have listed on teams. There are a number of them. With no BB Reference page, I suspect that they have an agreement but haven't put pen to paper yet. It's weird though, Fantrax usually doesn't add players without that BBR page, and specify BBR as evidence that the player has actually signed.
Let me look into it.
