[Albion] Valentín Barco **Signed 20/01/24**

[um bongo molongo]

I’ve gotten myself excited by this one. Seems a bit Bale-like in that he’s started at LB but seems to have potential to play lots of positions (very much an ‘us’ player). So he’s bound to end up somewhere else now isn’t he

Too early to start tracking flights from Ezeiza International?

I look forward to his addition to the "Big goalkeeper debate".

 

[El Turi]

We’ve made an offer apparently.

An Oferta sounds much cooler

 

[martin tyler]

He seems to get a fair bit right about the Argentinian players - sounds like it could have legs this one.

 

[kelvinnewman]

Fully invested in this deal happening, really hope it gets across the line

Will we stretch our budget to a FULL PACK of Toffos...?

here comes kudos 2.0. buckle up bhafc fans

FFS hasn’t he seen how West Ham play

Charlie is well placed. Would rarely report something like this without strong confidence.

This is SO exciting.

This is SO exciting.

This! Strangely for a player I've only read about and seen a few clips of playing online, I'm desperate to get this one over the line! On paper it looks like a great signing and a bit of a bargain.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Oh, I am on board, let's get this done ASAP

Like the tweet above says, seems like a perfect fit, gives both Estupinian and Mitoma some much needed competition and backup on the left hand side. Covers us for when the inevitable bids for Estupinian come in during the Summer.

 

[Albion Robster]

South American Flairmeister incoming...!!

 

[Rookie]

Wonder if he will be the last player we sign from Boca this year

 

[Johnny RoastBeef]

Not sure if this has been posted already, but this analysis of him is so exciting, and he takes corners!
