Transfers Abroad: Birmingham City Sign Espinoza
Newly promoted club Brimingham sign another Ecuadorian, this time a older player “La Sombra” Espinoza. They bought Giovanni Espinoza to reinforce their defense. At 32 years of age, I was surprised they decided to sign him because of his age but on the other hand he has the experience of playing in clubs of Mexico, Holland and Brazil not to mention the 80 caps for La Tri. Birmingham snapped him for a two-year deal hopefully with his stature of 6 ft 2 inches, he will succeed in one of the most important leagues of the world.
