EMILIANO ALFARO SIGNED FOR LAZIO

Well, it's pretty late actually. But, I need to write about a new signing of Lazio in this winter mercato. His name is Emiliano Alfaro. The 23 years Uruguayan striker that has just started his debut for the national team of Uruguay.

His full name is Emiliano Alfaro Toscano, born April 28, 1988 in Treinta y Tres, Uruguay. Alfaro started his professional career with Liverpool de Montevideo at the age of 18, becoming a first-team regular at a young age. His excellent performances led him to be transferred to the well known Argentinian club San Lorenzo. During his stay in Argentina, he did not have much continuity so he returned to Liverpool in mid 2010. In last season he did 25 performances and scored 12 goals for the club.

On November 7, 2011 he was named for a FIFA World Cup qualification match against Chile in Montevideo. Alfaro made his debut for Uruguay against Italy on 15 November 2011. He previously played with the Uruguayan under-20 team at the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup held in Canada alongside Edinson Cavani and Luis Suárez.

Hmmm... Quite interesting right? I hope he would be the next star for Lazio. With his position as forwarder, he will be the rival for Miroslav Klose, Tomasso Rocchi, Giuseppe Sculli, Libor Kozak, Djibril Cisse and Stephen Makinwa.
