Qwpzxjor1 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 From Cordoba's official Twitter.@cordobacfsad: El Córdoba CF y el Aston Villa FC han llegado a un acuerdo para traspasar a José Ángel Crespo al equipo inglés.@cordobacfsad: El defensa, tras el principio de acuerdo entre clubes, se desplaza hoy a Inglaterra para pasar el reconocimiento médico previo al fichaje.I don't speak Spanish but doesn't look too difficult to work out. Deal done, just waiting on medical?Right back, who can cover at left back. And according to a quick google search, was once punched by Christiano a Ronaldo.

Danwichmann Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Google translate: cordobacfsad : The Cordoba CF and Aston Villa FC have reached an agreement to transfer Jose Angel Crespo the English team . cordobacfsad : The defense, after the tentative agreement between clubs , travels today to England for medical examination prior to signing No nothing about him, but interesting how quietly we've gone about this. Absolutely nothing heard then medical. Double player presentation today / tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Raphael Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I speak Spanish (well half decent), says we've agreed a transfer. Muy bueno. Is he any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick76 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Looks like he can grow a good beard so should be good. Another one where I'll trust in Tim as I've never seen this guy play or know anything about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qwpzxjor1 Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Does this pave the way for Nathan Baker to leave? Not sure there's room in the squad for this many beards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danwichmann Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 According to good old Wikipedia we were interested in him back in 2008. Doesn't look like he's ever held on to a first team spot very regularly, at 28 years old it seems a strange signing. Will be interesting to see what happens with this one.

PieFacE Posted July 27, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) Can play LB or CB according to what I've read. Guessing he's being brought in for cover. Cool name though! Edited July 27, 2015 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingsombrero Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) He is supposedly in a contract dispute with Cordoba after they took up the option to buy on his loan deal from Bologna, the inclusion of which he then claimed he was not aware of (nothing to do with the rumoured 70% pay-cut for dropping a division I'm sure). We've been linked with him twice before, under MON and again about 4 years ago. Looks like we spotted an opportunity to nab a man long on our radar and Cordoba recognised an opportunity to avoid a drawn out contract saga. Don't know anything about him as a player, I hope he was a shining light in that Cordoba team because I'm pretty sure they finished rock bottom with the most goals conceded last season.

NoelVilla Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Hutton on is way out? Tim surprises a little with the transfers but if all the pieces are in place in September I have no problem if we do a big overhaul of the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Under Lambert this type of player would be coming in to start. Now it's adding to the squad. I'm happy with that level of improvement at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
