UEFA
Europa League play-off entrants FC Metalist Kharkiv have signed
Argentinian international Cristian Villagra from CA River Plate less
than a week before the start of the Ukrainian Premier League.The
24-year-old full-back has agreed a contract running until 2014 with
last season's third-placed finishers. Capped twice by Argentina, most
recently in May, Villagra helped River Plate to the 2008 Clausura title
a year after joining from CA Rosario Central. He made 93 league
appearances for the Buenos Aires club, bringing his career tally to 123.Villagra
said: "Before talking to my compatriots Walter Aníbal Acevedo and
Jonatan Maidana, who played for Kharkiv, I knew nothing about Metalist.
But I'm glad to be here. I feel more comfortable on the right wing but
I used to play on the left at River Plate. I'm equally good with both
feet so it's not a problem for me to switch flanks."He will aim
to be ready to make his debut when Metalist begin their 2010/11
campaign at SC Tavriya Simferopol on Saturday. Their UEFA Europa League
play-off is on 19 and 26 August, with the draw taking place 13 days
before the first leg
