Larossa Leaves!!!

Last updated : 26 January 2006 By Andy Van Hagen
Walsall today terminated the contract with Ruben Darius Larossa by mutual consent. The Argentine was signed up in July after scoring 2 goals in 3 pre-season friendlies. He will be remembered for his half way line strike in the friendly against Coventry City which was quite simply awesome.

The striker failed to impress during the season however and only started 3 games.

In the games Larossa started for Walsall we won all three but Ruben failed to score any goals in the first team.

Ruben is expected to now look for a club abroard as he has found it hard to settle in England.
