I’m quite glad we didn’t get him.
15 goals in 29 games in Spain’s second tier this season, yet he managed only one start for Villarreal’s first team (at the Bernabéu, in something of a sacrificial appearance) and 29 minutes as a substitute spread over three games.
If we’d have paid £7 million for him, I’d have gone mental.
He has played for Argentina though, in an unofficial warm-up game for the Olympics, though Maradona’s squad selection is scatter-gun at best.
