Anyone know about Andrea Caracciolo?

[Superjay]

Sly says were scouting him.

[cymrococh]

He was good on CM about 4 years ago.

[The Hitman]

He clearly hasn't made it then.

[Superjay]

Get him bought

[Guest Cardie]

Linked with him last season as well.

Sky are also linking us with Gonzalo Higuain:

 

Gonzalo Higuain is being lined up for a move to England, according to Pini Zahavi - who now controls half of the River Plate starlet.

 

Zahavi, along with a group of investors, has finalised a deal with River Plate for a reported $6 million (£3.2 million).

 

Now the Israeli super-agent has confirmed that a move to England is looking the most likely option for a player who over the past few months has attracted scouts from the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Lazio, Milan and Internazionale.

 

Higuain emerged as a real star of Argentine football earlier this month when he bagged two goals in River's 3-1 'Superclasico' derby win over arch-rivals Boca Juniors.

 

"The boy is special," beamed Zahavi.

 

"He is big, strong and well suited to the English game. English football has become stronger than Italy and Spain and players want to try it for themselves."

 

Zahavi admitted buying a big stake in a player as young as Higuain, just 18 - was a risk.

 

"I recommend players to investors," he expanded to the Daily Express.

 

"The idea is to locate them when they are young on the way to the top, the risk is bigger but they cost less."

 

While a tug of war for his services looks set to ensue in the near future, a battle over his international future has already begun.

 

Although he has spent virtually all his life in Argentina, Higuain was actually born in France as his father Jorge was plying his trade as a footballer there.

 

Now France are hot on the trail of one of the brightest prospects in South America and - as with David Trezeguet - are hopeful the player will snub Argentina.

 

"We know the player, and he is interesting," French coach Raymond Domenech opined recently.

 

"One does not play at that level if he does not have talent and the second quality is that he could be French.

 

"He is a player we are going to follow closely. But we can select him at any time as he is French."

 

Higuain has thus far refused all call-ups to the Argentina youth set-up - but the player is yet to disclose a preference for either country.

[Guest Kev]

he's got a girls name.

[Tosh]

Isn't he that fat italian "chef"/cafe owner fella?

[honourablegeorge]

Doubt we'd touch a player half-owned by Zahavi with a bargepole.

That slimey fvcker, is a Liverpool fan.

[oran]

although its just a rumor,i would love to see this guy playing for us.

been watching him since he was linked with us in the summer,the guy is class.

very good 1-1,great vision,strong,very cool infront of goal.

but if he is owned by zehavi and half of the listed teams are interested (which i believe they are) then i doubt we have a chance.

[Dule]

liverpool fan or not, i dont like the c***

[Maldini]

We were linked with Carrciolo when Rafa first took over, he's a bit like a less skillful Zlatan Ibrahimovic

An unskilled big lazy c*** then?

[Maldini]

Who is good at holding the ball up and doesn't score as many as he should. He's not too dissimilar to Crouch actually. He's more of a normal forward though.

[fyds]

That slimey fvcker, is a Liverpool fan.

Who just happens to spend most of his time kissing Roman's butt at the bridge. I can't see us going near deals with him involved.
