Brescia finally sign Almeyda
Tuesday 24 August, 2004
Brescia have today officially confirmed the capture of Argentine midfielder Matias Almeyda.
The player joins the Lombard club on a free transfer after his Inter contract expired last month.
The former Lazio star initially turned down the club’s offer in favour of a switch to Independiente.
However, the player decided to not head back to his homeland due to fears over the safety of his family in Argentina.
The ex-Parma player will be presented to the media on Wednesday after penning a one-year deal.
It is believed that the 31-year-old international will net himself around £350,000 a season at the Stadio Rigamonti.
