The United City Football Club (UCFC) signed Manuel Gelito Ott and Mike Rigoberto Gelito Ott on August 5, 2020. The two midfielders are brothers who are Filipino citizens born in Germany.

The UCFC is a Filipino professional football club competing in the Philippines Football League (PFL), the top-tier football league in the country. Ceres Liner chairman Leo Rey Yanson founded it as Ceres-La Salle FC in 2012 in cooperation with the University of St. La Salle of Bacolod.

  In 2017, the club joined the PFL and was renamed as Ceres-Negros. Emirati-Philippine sports marketing firm MMC Sportz Asia took over the management and renamed it as the UCFC.

In July 2020, the UCFC announced its takeover of Ceres-Negros. The renamed club is focused on retaining the titles it has won for the local league and building on its previous successes with the Asian Football Confederation (AFC).

  MMC Sportz Asia is based both in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and in Metro Manila, Philippines. Its CEO Eric Gottschalk, also a UCFC co-founder, said, “We are happy to announce that two more former players have signed on to play for United City Football Club this season.”

“Both Manny and Mike bring a tremendous amount of experience on the club and international level to the team and this will be instrumental in our pursuit to defend the PFL title and to progress from the AFC Cup Group stages in September in Vietnam,” Gottschalk continued. “These two are not our final signings for the upcoming season with four more players to be announced shortly.”

This is a picture of Manny Ott (center) buying a few helpings of siomai, a Chinese-Filipino snack, at a stall in Harrison Plaza together with (L-R) Jason Sabio, Rob Gier, Neil Etheridge and Stephan Shroeck.

We do appreciate your food trip guys! Maybe next time you might want to try siopao, kwek-kwek, isaw, fishballs, and (I dare yeah!) balut! That keeps the Pinoy in you going!

MANILA---The Philippine football team has widened its player pool for the AFC Challenge Cup group stage qualifying with the inclusion of foreign-based players and those taken from the tryouts that German coach Hans Michael Weiss conducted last month.  Among the additions in the 48-player list that will be submitted by the Philippine Football Federation to the AFC are Filipino-Danish goalkeeper Michael Falkesgaard, Filipino-Germans Patrick Reichelt and Manuel Ott and Filipino-Scottish James Hall. Falkesgaard, 19, is a goalkeeper currently playing for Brondby in the Danish second division. He has represented Denmark in the Under-19 and Under-20 levels, but Azkals team manager Dan Palami is still inviting the 6-foot-3 Falkesgaard to join the national team since the International Football Federation (Fifa) allows players to switch countries at any level. Palami learned about Falkesgaard from Filipino-Danish players Dennis Cagara and Jerry Lucena, who are also expected to see action for the Azkals if they make it to the group stage qualifying in Bangladesh. Reichelt, who stands 5-foot-10 and can play striker or winger, is attached with Energie Cottbus II in the German fourth division, while Hall signed a one-year deal with the English Premiere League club in 2007. Hall, 21, has long been in the Azkals’ wish list but injuries and his commitment with Everton before prevented him from suiting up for the Azkals. He, along with younger brother Ryan, was in Bacolod to watch the Azkals beat Mongolia, 2-0. The 18-year-old Ott, who plays for FC Ingolstad, started in the three games for the Azkals in the AFF Suzuki Cup qualifying event in Vientiane, Laos last year. Palami is still hoping that Filipino-German rightback Stephan Schrock, who plays for Greuther Furth, will be able to beef up the squad if it makes it to Bangladesh.
