Sabre lad , or Andy . any hopes of a translation please.Apparently he's coming to us via a 6 month loan to Espanol.

can't be ar'sed doing a full translation (ivan!!!!!) but the gist of it seems to be that espanyol have closed the deal with this guy - who's tall, good in the air and scores a decent number of goals - until the end of the season. there's been a fee of 400,000 pretty much agreed but it may be less if another player, Pillud, is thrown in.

then it looks like from next season he's ours, but we're going to let espanyol have him on loan, in exchange for their defensive midfielder (!!) Kaidho.

i may have this all wrong so i'd wait on word from sabre before taking anything serious from it...

I don't know what that says about him but apparently he's going to Espanyol for six months to get accustomed to European football, while we work out a work permit for him. At 6'6" he does look good.

yeah ive heard of him. that uruguay striker right? scored around 11 goals in 17 matches i think. not very quick but had great aerial ability.

Sorry lads, I miss the rumour mill many days.

BTW, yesterday it was our April fools day.... and in those days the press always make up a signing completely (it's a classic). Let me check the story first.

Yes it seems a "Day of the innocent" joke.

anyway

El club catalán no ha podido hacerse con una opción de compra sobre el delantero ya que el jugador pasará a jugar en el Liverpool la próxima temporada. Rafa Benítez ha dado su visto bueno a la operación para que el jugador se vaya adaptando al fútbol europeo. A cambio, el Espanyol ha alcanzado un acuerdo con los 'reds' para que la próxima temporada juegue en Cornellá-El Prat, en calidad de cedido, su joven centrocampista defensivo, internacional con Camerún, Has Kaidho.

The Catalan club couldn't agree a buy out clause for the loan because the player is going to play in Liverpool next season. Rafa Benitez has agreed the loan deal so that the player adapts to European football. In exchange, Liverpool will play a friendly at Cornella and will loan their young Cameroon holding midfielder Has Kaihdo.

Has Khaido, stands for "Has caído", which means, "you bought the joke"
