Matias Abelelairas - On Trial


Recommended Posts

Do you know much about him?,is he any good?

 

Na never heard of him :D

 

Just back from 7 months out after a cruciate knee operation... :D

 

Sounds like our sort of player then. I'm all for giving anybody a chance that could play that left wing role.

As a free agent, Abelairas is eligible to sign for any club outwith the transfer window. The player holds an Italian passport and would not require a work permit to sign for Rangers.

 

The 26-year-old returned to action in January, following a seven-month lay-off due to a knee cruciate ligament injury.

 

Abelairas spent seven years with River Plate, winning the Clausura twice, before leaving the club. He was expected to join Deportes Iquique in August this year, having left Los Millonarios in June.

 

Villarreal purchased 50% of Abelairas' rights in 2008, one of six River Plate players acquired by the Spanish club. He was also linked with a loan move to MLS side Seattle Sounders in 2010, having seen him during a pre-season tour to Argentina.

 

Abelairas and former team-mate Josepmir Ballon pursued River for unpaid wages after being released in the summer.

Which means exactly what? There is very strange business going on with the Spanish and the Portuguese when it comes to South American footballers.

 

If we assume that he's currently a free agent (is he?) then Villareal would get 50% of nothing. You'd have to think that the 50% 'rights' would only become an issue if the player is sold for 'X' amount in which case Villareal would be due 50% of 'X'.
