Welcome.

Huh, I didn't realize you couldn't play in Sere A prior to 18. Whatever, hope he is given some playing time.

welcome Barreto!

It's not, it's only for players from S America. Maldini made his Milan debut at 16, it hasn't changed. The Macheda thing was he couldn't sign a professional contract until he was 18 but he could still have played.

If I've not got it all wrong he is allredy training with the team so why couldent he have gone with the squad to spain for todays friendly or is he not alowed to play any games at all with us until he is 18?

Yes, he´s not allowed until he´s 18 years old.

Yip, he can't register to play any matches until he turns 18.

Bojinov is from Bulgaria and yes Bulgarians can be registered under 18. Unfortunatly south american's cant be registered untill they're 18.

Exactly, like I originally posted-South Americans.

I think its non-europeans, not s.americans

is he officially ours? If so, why isn't there an news about him on tuttomercatoweb?

actually this was the best transfer for us in the past years (except Zarate of course)
young, cheap and after what i saw in a few games better skills than Messi...don't forget that Lotito had to fight with Arsenal, Man U, and Real to get him!
nice done!
now its just time to confirm

He's ours its yet to be made official since we cant really register him due to being under 18, but the deal is done.

Barreto.
The young man already left the city after some controls and speech with someone else.
A secret shadow around him in this 2 days.
He will be back in january and start the training with the Primavera Team...

Gonzalo Barreto asspetta solo gennaio. Il talento argentino, contattato da Cittaceleste.it, ha confermato il suo viaggio segreto nella capitale e dato appuntamento
al prossimo anno: 'Ho firmato il contratto, ma potrà valere soltanto da gennaio quando avrò compiuto 18 anni. Non vedo l'ora che arrivi quel giorno'. Prima, però, c'è di mezzo un Mondiale: 'Ora andiamo in Brasile a giocare due partite amichevoli, poi andremo in Nigeria'. Là, Gonzalo spera di fare la differenza: 'Sono un giocatore rapido, abile e potente. Ho un buon senso del gol ed un'ottima confidenza con il pallone. Assomiglio a Zarate? Per me è un onore essere paragonato a quello che io considero uno dei migliori attaccanti del mondo, ma credo mi manchi molto per arrivare al suo livello'. Magari, giocandoci insieme, colmerà il gap: 'Sarebbe fantastico giocare con lui'.

Dunque a gennaio: 'Non posso dire molto, ma penso di sì. Sono comunque già contento di potermi considerare un giocatore della Lazio, una delle squadre più importanti al mondo'.

calciomercato.com

basically confirms he's on the main squad of Lazio from January...

Is Gonzalo participating in WC Under 20 for Uruguay?

No, he isn't. 17 and 20 is kind off a big difference. And from what I could see they're attack is already strong enough.

From FIFA.com:

Star players
In a side with such a plethora of attacking options, singling out one player is quite difficult. The five goals Abel Hernandez netted in qualifying make him an obvious candidate, but it would be unfair not to mention fellow front-men Jonathan Urretaviscaya and Santiago Garcia, along with midfielders Nicolas Lodeiro and Tabare Viudez. Another to keep a close eye on in the Land of the Pharaohs is wing-back Adrian Gunino.

This is a good transfer, after all, Cruz and Rocchi are not getting any younger, we can build a future with Zarate, Baretto and Foggia. Add to that with Pandev leaving, we need an additional attacker.

Folks who wanna catch a glimpse of the boy, be sure to watch tomorrow's under 17 Fifa World Cup game between Uruguay and South Korea.

4.00 CET Kick Off Time.

He will lead the line for the Uruguay team, as the tournament kick's off.

Im pretty excited.

For those in the UK and Ireland, the game is live on British Eurosport.

Thx for telling. Started watching but he only got to play the first 40 min. Not sure if it was injury, hope he'll play the next game.

i dunno if it wasnt his day or somthin, but i watched him today, was awful, had some few touches but nothin special, iam sorry for saying that, maybe he will start primeriva not Seria A, or maybe it was just not his day, or even like said before he injured ?

The bulgarian commentator of Eurosport said that in his country they say he is the new Forlan.
