Blackburn have moved to fill the gap left by David Bentley's departure by signing the Chile midfielder Carlos Villanueva. The Chilean player of the year has joined Rovers on an initial one-year loan deal from Audax Italiano with Rovers having the option to sign him permanently next summer.If manager Paul Ince decides to keep Villanueva, the 22-year-old has already agreed terms on a three-year contract. "It is and exciting signing, everyone is talking about him," said Ince. "He's a talented kid, he's a skilfull player, I'm sure he'll excite the fans. Getting him here excites me and shows the kind of football I'm looking to play at Blackburn."We'll see how it goes. It is always hard when you come to a new country. I went to Italy and it took me a few months to settle down, so I don't want too much expectation on the lad. It will take him time to settle in, but we believe we have a decent player."http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/au...llanuevasigningMent to be sick, so said Tim Vickery.

LMAO why have Juventus sign ex Arsenal keeper Alex Manninger?If he aint good enough for Arsenal hows he gonna be good enough for them?
Back up to Buffon, it's funny cause he joined Udinese this summer now he has left. Just like Antonio Chimenti who has also left Udinese for Juve.

Newcastle complete Coloccini deal Coloccini is an experienced player Newcastle have confirmed the signing of Deportivo La Coruna defender Fabricio Coloccini on a five-year deal. Deportivo have claimed the final fee for the 26-year-old Argentine, who played in all La Liga games last season, could rise to £10.3m. Coloccini joins Danny Guthrie and Jonas Gutierrez as new summer signings made by Magpies manager Kevin Keegan. The powerful Coloccini started his career at Boca Juniors before switching to Italian side AC Milan. He failed to make an impact at the San Siro outfit and was loaned to Spanish sides San Lorenzo, Alaves, Atletico Madrid and Villarreal before moving to Deportivo during the 2005 January transfer window. Coloccini helped Deportivo to ninth place in La Liga last season but was keen to make the move to Tyneside. He was part of the Argentina squad for the 2006 World Cup and started the quarter-final as his country lost to hosts Germany on penalties.
