Don't know him but the fact he went back to South America might tell us all we need to know about him.
River plate got relegated as well so he wasn't even playing top flight football over ther Sure it's a non starter. Apparently though arouna Kone wants to complete a move to the prem this week with us n WBA having bid for him
He's a decent enough player Cavenaghi, or was when he was at Bordeaux, but he's slow as a chuff. Goal record is pretty good over a long period though, so maybe not one to completely dismiss.
Most south american players don't do it in the premier league, ( Arca, Tevez, Ardilles, Kempes, exeptions) so could be dodgy.
I'm inclined to agree with that Monty, apart from the Kempes bit, he never played in England did he? I'd rather buy European, Ideally British.
