Fangueiro SIGNS!!

Last updated : 18 August 2006 By Andy Van Hagen
Walsall have announced the signing of ex-Millwall man Carlos Fangueiro. The 29 year old midfielder can also play up front and signs after impressing in the recent 4-1 reserves win over Port Vale. A game he played in as a trialist.

The man from Portugal first arrived in England to join Colin Lee at the New Den. His previous clubs include Leixoes Sports Club, Vitoria Guimaraes (two spells), FC Maia, Gil Vicente and Uniao Leiria.

Carlos left Millwall in May after being unable to push his way into the starting XI. He made only one start for the Championship side in their relegation season and was linked with a move to Plymouth a few weeks back, but no deal was forthcoming.

Manager Richard Money was quoted a few weeks ago saying he would like a midfielder who could run with the ball. It seems Fanguerio is his man he has decided upon for this role.

It is expected that he will make his Walsall debut tomorrow against Lincoln City.
