Kevin Malaga

Kevin Malaga is suppose to be the mystery next signing. I researched him on wiki and it only came up with his name and club, does anyone know anything about him ?

[Nick]

Looks like he plays for Nice

 

[CovisGod]

Rarely ! 3 career league appearances or am I reading it wrong lol

 

[skyblueshaun]

thats as far as it goes on wiki so he can't be that experienced but i would take anyone to strengthen the squad

Where did you hear that?

Where did you hear that?

quite a few people have put it on Coventry Citys status on facebook

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

He's 25 and played 3 games! Oh dear

 

[kg82]

It's unlikely he'll only have played 3 pro games in his career. It's more likely his wiki page hasn't been updated in a while! And this is only a rumour on fb - this has happened before and we've been totally wrong!

CFA = Championnat de France amateur (French 4th tier)
CFA2 = Championnat de France amateur 2 (French 5th tier)

Essentially he's been playing for the Auxerre and Nice 'B' teams more than the first teams.

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

So we're potentially signing a player who has only really played in the 4th and 5th tier of French football :S

Is it confirmed now then?

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

Nope, sorry, just basing that on the rumours. Edited it now.

If we signed a European, I'll be really disappointed if his name is Kevin...

I kind of take offence to that!!!

 

[Astute]

So no names have been mentioned, but some of us are guessing at it being a below average player whilst some are saying it could be a world class player :thinking about:

Look somewhere in the middle and you will have a much better chance of guessing who it is, and still it would be like hunting for a needle in a haystack. It would be hard enough guessing the country, let alone a certain player. Get on their backs when the players name is released.

 

[Sterling Archer]

Even if it is Malaga, how about we wait for him to actually play for us before slagging him off?

 

[Joy Division]

I don't know the new guys name but he definitely does not look like Kevin Malaga

 

[skybluesam66]

also we are now in the 3rd division, so most of our interest will be around that level

we are not in the market for international or premier league players any more
Not even championship players

 

[torchomatic]

No one had ever heard of Gunna either...

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

Sorry if anyone took my comments as slagging him off, obviously if it is him I will wait until I've seen him play a reasonable amount of games before making a judgement, I was just showing some concern at the fact that he has only really played in the 4th and 5th tiers of French football, and even though I don't know what the standard of football is but from what I've read it's semi-pro so I'm unsure about whether a player from that league would be suitable for the standard we are going to be playing at next season.

You been down to Ryton then? Any description?

 

[skybluelee]

Sol Campbell comeback? Des Walker? KILLER?!?

Wait, that makes no sense, they aren't overseas based..in which case, Costacurta?!

Killer lives in Portugal. :thinking about:

Hope it wasnt the other foreign trialist you spotted!

Kevin is a European Name............WE'RE EUROPEAN!

 

[wingy]

TWO KEVINS ,who'd have thought it ,Now I've got a cousin called Kevin

 

[tippex9]

Let's hope he's more Mo then Alex Euvshk (excusw spelling)

In all fairness there are about 8 or 9 players I dont recognise there. But a quick google search of this Malaga chap and his face did not look familiar.

It can be tricky these days to know which ones are the new squad members and which ones are the school kids there on a day trip..........

There is no way it is Keogh's replacement.

When have we ever been that proactive, our replacements normally arrive two seasons later,

I watched a lot of French Level 3 and 4 for nine years at my local towns side, Niort, as they played on friday nights which was very handy, and if we're signing players at Level 4 or 5 in the french league all i can say is Oh dear.

Its was virtually non contact football ,so we will have a centre half who won't want to tackle or get stuck in, and he'll go down every time someone comes near him. Some games seemed to take all night to finish ,as all the players spent all the time being treated for dislocated eyelashes or fractured toenails.

I must of seen him play some time in those nine years , i'd like to know which teams he played for

The Rev

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

He plays for Nice B team I believe Rev and he's also played for Auxerre B as well

This thread is like a bunch of girls waiting for a Justin Bieber concert...

It don't mean there is not an agreement in place. You know; something like....

"You can have Keogh, but wait until we have his replacement before announcing you have signed him. Our fans have just lost Bigi, so wr need some good news to give them"
