Possibly yes but most players are on their holidays in June and return at the end of the month for pre season training and/or to look at offers on the table. Signing Bhasera will give out some sort of signal that we mean business this season but to be honest I'd rather push the boat out for a striker who could make the difference.

The thing is that I don't think that Baz is your average league 2 left back, when allowed to get forward he is a good offensive player
Who knows how to cross to the forwards and he will score the odd goal that will mean the difference of winning the odd extra game. Not worth blowing the budget on but we will get a better price for him if he is sold when we are doing better in the league.

Plymouth Argyle still waiting on word from out-of-contract Onismor Bhasera

PLYMOUTH Argyle are in the dark about the future of their player-of-the-year Onismor Bhasera.
The Pilgrims offered a new deal to the out-of-contract Zimbabwe international at the end of last term.


However, they have not heard from Bhasera since then and pre-season training starts tomorrow.
Under Football League rules, Argyle's offer to Bhasera – who has been at Home Park since March 2010 and made 114 first team appearances – expired on June 1.

Herald Sport understands Argyle manager John Sheridan spoke to Bhasera's agent after that deadline and said the League Two club would be willing, in principle, to extend the offer, but has had no contact since.
There has been speculation about interest in Bhasera from several clubs, including Bristol City and Oxford United, in recent months.
Argyle's new offer to Bhasera will almost certainly have been on reduced wages compared to his previous contract.
That was agreed in August 2010, when the Pilgrims were in League One, and had recently been relegated from the Championship.

Winger Andres Gurrieri is set to put pen to paper for Argyle tomorrow when he reports for the start of pre-season training after a summer spent in his homeland Argentina.
Gurrieri, 23, was offered a new deal by Sheridan at the end of last term.
Argyle are also close to sealing two new signings, with midfielder Dominic Blizzard expected to be one of them.
Blizzard, 29, was released by newly-promoted Championship club Yeovil Town earlier this month.
He made 47 starts and 15 substitute appearances for Yeovil in all competitions during two seasons and scored five goals.
His time at Huish Park was hampered by injuries and illness, however.
Blizzard missed out on a chance of being involved in Yeovil's League One play-off final win against Brentford at Wembley because of a stomach bug.

Argyle have a fortnight until they play their first pre-season game, away to Elburton Villa on Tuesday, July 9.
Sheridan is busy trying to add to his squad, having already recruited goalkeeper Luke McCormick, versatile attacker Lewis Alessandra and striker Reuben Reid – the latter on a long-term loan from Yeovil – this summer.
Blizzard started his career at Watford, turning professional in 2002, and played 36 times at first team level, netting three goals.
He later had two-year spells at both Stockport County and Bristol Rovers before moving to Yeovil in the summer of 2011
.
With pre-season about to start, goalkeeper Rene Gilmartin has left Argyle by mutual consent.
Gilmartin, 26, signed a two-year contract with the Pilgrims last summer after arriving from Watford.
He made 16 appearances last season but ended the campaign as number two 'keeper to Jake Cole.
Gilmartin was subsequently put on the transfer list by Sheridan, along with striker Nick Chadwick.
The Irish shot-stopper can now find another club after severing his ties with the Home Park outfit.
Sheridan has replaced Gilmartin with the re-signing of former Argyle 'keeper McCormick from Oxford United.

Meanwhile, winger Paris Cowan-Hall has been linked with a move to Argyle's League Two rivals Wycombe Wanderers.
The Pilgrims would be entitled to a fee for 22-year-old Cowan-Hall, who is under contract to them until next summer.
Cowan-Hall signed for Argyle from Surrey part-timers Woking last summer and made 45 appearances during the 2012/13 season, scoring five goals.

So the latest news on Bhasera is.....there's no news

No wonder we are waiting on his word.

And so it goes...

Well they always say ''no news'' is good news..!!!

Baz has gone if he isnt returning calls then its clear he has left. Shame but if he can earn a decent wage at a football club that isnt hellbent on self destruction then good on him.

Or he's desperately trying to get a better deal and I would bet he hasn't been offered one, if he had a decent offer he would snap their hand off and we would know immediately, this smacks of playing hard to get, I think he wants to go, but is the money out there?

Andres tweeted last night


Andrés Gurrieri @AndyGurrieri
Already in England, getting ready for tomorrow.

Gurrieri hardly gets the heart racing. Bhaz is a different kettle of fish. Somebody pointed out that Sturrock got us out of this league by recruiting players who were most certainly 'better' than league 2. 

Bhaz falls in to that category. But looking round the rest of the squad and with the re-signing of Gurrieri I reckon mid-table will be our Zenith. Depressing. 

Edit: but if the rumours concerning Banton returning are true, that will be a massive signing.

Except it now looks like Bhasera will be off and we be replaced by Matt Parsons from Palace, along with Jason Banton

Bristol City have sign Aston Villa Left Back Derrick Williams who captains the  Republic of Ireland under-21, turn down a new deal at Villa to get more first team football

Parsons seems reasonably highly rated and we all know how good Banton is.

Baz in all fairness is way too good for this league. I'll be slightly disappointed to see him leave but it was always going to be the most likely outcome. I reckon we're looking at top half but not play-off material.

Anybody out there in Bhaseraland know WTf is going on with this guy?

 Still no news. I would have half a mind to tell him to feck off if he ever came crawling back. I understand players wanting to earn more money but all he has to do is to play it straight and communicate this to the club. That he hasn't got the decency to do that says more about him than it does our offer.

Onismor Bhasera off to Turkey

ZIMBABWE international left back Onismor Bhasera has been offered the chance to play in a top-flight league after he was invited for trials with Turkish Super league side Elazigspor.

The 26-year-old Bhasera, who plays for English League Two side Plymouth Argyle, flew to England last night where Elazigspor coach was set to pick him up as the club prepares for the 2013/14 season in Netherlands.

His agent Ralph Nkomo revealed yesterday that the former Kaizer Chiefs full-back would train with the Turkish club from July 10 as the club wants to have a closer look at the player with the view of
signing him.

Nkomo said another English championship side was also interested in Bhasera.

He said in England, the Zimbabwean international full-back would not need to go for trials as he is well known since his transfer from Kaizer Chiefs in 2010.

“The club will start its pre-season training on 10 July in the Netherlands and they will pick up Bhasera in England. The club is looking for a left-back and want to have a look at him since they don’t know how he plays. It’s unlike in England where he is well known. He was the best player for Plymouth Argyle in the past season, but we are looking at what is best for the player,” Nkomo said.

He added that the Zimbabwean star — who is also comfortable playing on the left side of the midfield — did not return to Plymouth Argyle because he was not happy with the terms offered by the English side.

Nkomo said nothing changed as far as the terms were concerned since the club came out of administration and that everything they were looking at now should be in the best interests of the player.

“We can’t rule out his return to Plymouth Argyle, but it will depend on what offers are on the table because he is a very good player and a number of clubs are interested in him,” Nkomo added.

While Nkomo said they were not happy with the terms set for the player, Plymouth Argyle manager John Sheridan claims they had offered him a good deal.

Sheridan has, however, stated that he would not chase the player although he acknowledged the value he adds to the team.

“I’ve got to be looking at bringing someone else in now,” Sheridan told BBC Radio Devon.

“I’m not going to chase a player around the world when there’s one on the doorstep who can do a job for us.

“We’ve made him a very good offer. We like him. The fans like him and he’s done well for us. The problem is getting hold of him and finding his whereabouts.”

Bhasera, who made 114 appearances for the Pilgrims since joining from Kaizer Chiefs in 2010, had shown great potential to play at the highest level in the English premiership.

But still, he has been presented with a chance to show that he can still play at the top level
in Turkey.

Should Bhasera make a breakthrough, he will mix with African stars at Elagizspor who include Guinea midfielder Pascal Feindouno, Senegal midfielder Tidiane Sane and Nigerian defender Chibuzor Okonkwo.
The Plymouth Argyle manager though has wasted little time looking for a replacement left-back, with Canadian Martin John and Ryan Dickson both already on trial.

That's that then. Get Dickers in Shezza.

Baz is definitely on a fishing trip, hope he catches a cold, on the other hand if we have offered him feck all then you can't blame him looking for another club, the communication thing would piss me right off if I was Shezza. I think the Turkey thing is only happening because there is no interest here.

The problem is that no-one really knows what goes on behind the scenes, so for all we know the club made an offer, was told it wasn't considered exceptable and to come back with a better offer or an ofeer in the region of xxxx. The club might not have done this and so he is looking elsewhere.
Just trying to play the devil's advocate  

I really hope he finds himself without a club given the lack of respect he's shown the PAFC and JS, then when he comes grovelling back to sign his contract JS should say, sorry old chap but the terms have changed, how does the national minimum wage of £6 something an hour sound ?

On trial at Yeovil now (according to the Herald)
