Argentina striker Franco Di Santo signs from Chelsea
Wigan Athletic are delighted to announce the signing of 6ft 3ins Argentine forward Franco Di Santo from Chelsea for an undisclosed fee.
The 21 year-old has spent the afternoon undergoing a medical and has put pen to paper on a three year deal at the DW Stadium, the deal going through with minutes to spare of the closing of the transfer-window.
Manager Roberto Martinez, who has been tracking the striker for some time, is thrilled to have got his man.
"Franco is an Under-20 international for Argentina," he said, "with great Premier League experience having worked at a club with the calibre of players of Chelsea, and also spending a hugely beneficial year on loan at an established club like Blackburn Rovers.
"We all feel that Franco can fulfil his potential at our football club and he'll bring a completely different dimension to our squad with his presence, technical ability and hard-work.
"We've been following Franco for a long time and from his point of view it's clear that he is desperate to play for Wigan Athletic and his desire and commitment is exactly the right attitude for our club."
Di Santo spent last season on-loan to Blackburn Rovers where he made 15 starts, scoring one goal against Burnley in October and putting in a string of very impressive performances for Rovers. He made a further seven appearances from the bench.
He first arrived in England in 2008, leaving Chilean side Audax Italiano for Chelsea and going on to make substitute eight appearances for the Blues, and impressing highly in the reserves.
On the international front Di Santo has won 25 caps for Argentina Under-20s between 2006-09, scoring five goals, and it is felt he is one of his country's real prospects.
He expressed his delight at joining the club: "I am just happy that my future has been sorted out now. I can't wait to start training, meet all my new team mates and start fighting for my place in the team.
"Roberto Martinez has big ambitions for the club and he made it clear how much he wanted me to be here. When a manager is so positive about you, then it is an easy decision to make."
En realidad, el San Lorenzo no será el gran beneficiado de este traspaso, sino el grupo inversor que posee la mayoría de los derechos econóicos del Papu. Al Ciclón de Argentina le quedará sólo un diez por ciento de la operación, es decir unos 300.000 euros.
Il Calcio Catania S.p.A. comunica di aver acquisito a titolo definitivo il diritto alle prestazioni del calciatore Alejandro Dario Gomez, nato il 15 febbraio 1988 a Buenos Aires, centrocampista offensivo, nell'ultima stagione in forza al San Lorenzo de Almagro. Gomez, campione del mondo under 20 nel 2007 con l'Argentina, ha sottoscritto un contratto quinquennale, legandosi alla società rossazzurra fino al 30 giugno 2015. Il giocatore si è aggregato alla squadra e svolgerà nel pomeriggio il primo allenamento con i nuovi compagni.
Dynamo Kyiv have completed the signing of Argentinean midfield player Facundo Bertoglio from FC Atlético Colón (Santa Fe). The 19-year-old has put pen to paper on a five-year contract with the Ukrainian club.

¿Cómo estás viviendo tus primeros días en Mar del Plata?
Estoy muy ansioso, pero tranquilo porque se que es una pretemporada y hay que dar el máximo, pero estaba ansioso por ser la primera de mi carrera.
¿Tu experiencia como integrante de la sub 17 de Argentina puede ayudarte?
La experiencia en la Selección seguramente me ayudará porque he tenido la suerte de viajar por Europa y Africa y eso por más de que sea selección juvenil y no un plantel de primera seguramente me va a ayudar.
¿Qué recordás de tus años en divisiones inferiores donde anhelabas llegar a Primera?
En todos los años que estuve en Banfield entrenando por la mañana o por la tarde uno veía a los jugadores salir en un micro o mismo en una práctica y decía “quiero estar ahí”. Ahora me toca y tengo que dejar lo mejor de mi.
¿En quién pensás en estos primeros momentos de la pretemporada?
En mis viejos, sólo tengo palabras de agradecimiento para ellos. En mi familia, en mis amigos, que son los que me apoyaron siempre, desde chiquito. Mis viejos me traían siempre, me bancaban, estoy hace ocho años en el club.
Para aquel que no te conoce tanto, ¿Cuáles son tus características de juego?
Es difícil definirse a uno mismo, pero soy un lateral izquierdo con proyección pero con marca y mucho temperamento.
