Was just browsing SSN and noticed that they have a list of players currently without a club and available on a free, makes for an interesting read. There is some quality in there which would make a good additions to our squad.

Victor Valdes


Anthony Reveillere


Carlos Marchena


Modibo Diakite


Andrea Dossena


Ronaldinho


Alou Diarra


Sotiris Ninis


Florent Malouda


Nilmar


Hugo Almeida

Wouldn't mind seeing Diakite, Ninis and Nilmar at the CG! In fact, all apart from Reveillere and Marchena (being ageist) would be welcome in a Garibaldi IMO.

Mr Google will help :)

There are a few lesser known names in that list with a few more recognisable characters such as Valdes (former Barca keeper), Dossena (former Liverpool defender), Ronaldinho (Goofy toothed Brazilian), Malouda (ex-Chelsea) and Almeida (Portuguese striker).

Reveillere and Marchena are quality defenders, RB and CB respectively but 34 & 35 years old now.

Diakite had a contract at Sunderland which was terminated by mutual consent recently.

Diarra was most recently at West Ham and is not bad at CM.

Ninis is a young greek CM with plenty of talent.

Nilmar was at Villareal and had a good season or 2. Played for Brazil and has a decent scoring record at international level.

If I'm honest, it's more wishful thinking as I'm sure some wages here are astronomical but I reckon some such as Ninis, Diakite or Diarra would be achievable. The rest would command a higher level of football or too great a wage packet!

You never know though, the Ronaldinho rumour has done the rounds before. :)

Can't believe none of them have got a club?

Diarra is memorable to Forest fans from a cup win/slaughtering was removed at half time struggling to cope. Was one blamed for the capitulation of one of most memorable games.

Would make good business sense to sign ronadinho. Could you imagine the media attention? Also. Not a bad super sub lol
