Saint Garrett Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2336569/Southampton-close-signing-Gonzalo-El-Zorro-Bueno.html Saints lining up £8m-rated Zorro to make his mark alongside countryman Ramirez Southampton are close to agreeing an £8million deal for Uruguay winger Gonzalo Bueno. The 20-year-old, who plays for Nacional Montevideo, is known as El Zorro and has been hailed as the next Diego Forlan. He is predominantly a left winger but can also play on the right or as a striker and has made a big impact for his club by coming off the bench to score crucial goals. He has been called up to Uruguay's U20 and U23 squads and also has a Portuguese passport. The move to Southampton would allow him to link up with compatriot Gaston Ramirez.

Saint Charlie Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 (edited) Looks an exciting player, we were linked last summer at the point the Ramirez deal was up in the air I think. Strange link for a Journo to just make up, but there doesnt seem to be any other reports apart from this Mail one that I could find to link him to us this summer. Whilst you can't judge someone's overall game on You Tube he is clearly very skillful, quick and likes to run directly at players which is something we do lack in the final third.

Saint Charlie Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 The Uruguayan Lee Holmes? He runs at players with pace and trickery (albeit with perhaps questionable end product) so probably not, no.
Turkish Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 (edited) He runs at players with pace and trickery (albeit with perhaps questionable end product) so probably not, no. The Urugyan Ryan Smith? Luckily we all know there is no truth in this as the daily fail (LMFAO) is a paper full of lies and racists with an anti Saints agenda. No way would they print a positve story about a foreigner coming here and taking a job a Brit like Will Buckley could do. Edited 6 June, 2013 by Turkish

Actually they´re correct in 25% of their transfer stories for us http://www.footballtransferleague.co.uk/football_club.aspx?football_club=Southampton
Olallana Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 Exciting player, seen him a couple of times in Copa Libertadores. As many young players a bit inconsistent but is the type of player we need and I would love if this is true cause signing young prospects like him is the right way to go, if you mix it up with more players ready from the off. £8m though seems a bit far to me unless it´s with some clauses in it. £8m upfront would be at least 3m too much. IF we do sign him I would only hope that people could be patient, but that will probably never happen.....

Sour Mash Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 As I said in the HCDAJFU thread, can see the comparison with Suarez in playing style, but still very inexpereinced, with a fair bit to develop I'd expect, so would be a bit of a gamble. Does sound like this one might be happening though.

Matthew Le God Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 (edited) According to Wiki he's never scored for his club. Yes it does, it says he's scored goals for Nacional (his club). Remember also Wiki isn't a good source unless it gives a reference as it can be edited by anyone in the world. Plus you can see lots of his goals for his club in the youtube videos.

Colinjb Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 "...has made a big impact for his club by coming off the bench to score crucial goals." According to Wiki he's never scored for his club... Has scored 6 for Nacional when I checked. And which muppet has changed his entry to state that he plays for us?
Sour Mash Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 "...has made a big impact for his club by coming off the bench to score crucial goals." According to Wiki he's never scored for his club... The Wiki page says he's scored 5 I think. I think Whoscored suggests a few more.
Olallana Posted 6 June, 2013 Posted 6 June, 2013 http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/gonzalo-bueno/profil/spieler_188733.html 12 goals in 37 games this season in different competitions.
