Liverpool have continued their flurry of activity ahead of Wednesday night's transfer deadline by signing Deportivo La Coruna defender Alvaro Arbeloa.

 

With Rafa Benitez targeting three signings over the next couple of days, the centre back is travelling to Merseyside to undergo a medical.

 

Malaga's Francis Duran has agreed to his switch to Anfield and Javier Mascherano looks likely to obtain permission from FIFA to arrive from West Ham.

 

Benitez has looked to his homeland again to swoop for Arbeloa after thrashing out a deal with Depor.

 

"The club has got a very good investment," declared coach Joaquin Caparros in confirming the transfer.

 

Real Madrid are entitled to 50 percent of the profit on the money earned on the 24-year-old, who has made 14 appearances this term, after he started his career with the capital club.

Álvaro Arbeloa Coca (born 17 January 1983) is a young centrel defender/right defender with Deportivo de La Coruña. Arbeloa is another young talent from the Real Madrid youth system.

 

On July 24, 2006 after the departure of Castilla striker Roberto Soldado, a second Castilla player left Real Madrid's training camp is Austria, Real Madrid Castilla's Captain, no. 17 Álvaro Arbeloa. The 23 year old left Real and said: "This is a strange situation for me, i have been playing for Real Madrid Castilla for 5 years, since i was 18 year's old, Real was nothing but good to me, but it's time for me to go. real has the best players in the world, although that is great for the club, unfortunately that's not so great for Cantera players, only a few of us can find there place in the first team, and even those how find there place in the first team like Álvaro Mejía and Paco Pavon are only 3ed or 4th pick and that is why i want to live the club, to a club where i can get some play time, in the Primera Liga of course. Deportivo de La Coruña is one of the best clubs in Spain, and with Joaquín Caparrós as head coach I will certainely get more experience, and get better, what is most important is that he will have confidence in me. I have enjoyed my time in real, and i thank evrybody who helped me. I'm leaving Madrid to play more, no other reason."

 

* Real Madrid will gain 50% off the transfer fee if he is sold in the next three years.

oh good another player who is new to the physical and pacy natrure of the prem.

 

 

lol! How cheery.

 

You just never know, look at Cashley Cole - he still hasn't adjusted to Chelsea yet and looks half the player he was, and he's never played in any other league.

 

And we've had players in recent years from Spain like Xabi, Momo, Luis Garcia and Reina, who may not have been used to it, but got used to it quick enough. And yet we've signed players from the Prem like Jermaine Pennant who's taken longer to adjust than those 4.

i'm just moaning because i don't know if he's any good and can't yell "wahoo" plus the memory of Joesmi still haunts.

Sounds like Depor have some serious financial problems. The fans certainly seem upset about him leaving too. Hopefully Barragan will want to come back too...
