Briefly mentioned take over around 1h 20min in

Apparently father relatively successful footballer in Brazil who finished career in middle East. After and unsuccessful spell in management he moved back to Brazil. Son used dad's connections to start being an agent.

Speculates reason behind move may be to move players to get them noticed and sell on. Was positive about move.

That's a good listen
Could we be like Wigan when they signed the 3 Spanish lads in the bottom division?

anybody thinking we'll have loads of Brazilians coming over, I'm sure that in order to get a visa clearance you have to be a FULL Internatinal footballer, with the criteria of playing a certain percentage of Internatinal games in the past few years to gain a working visa.

Interesting when we are mentioned amongst the big players of the Middle East and other world superstars, past and present.
commentator didnt realise we are in "division 4" and between them got the 10 years right of "bumbling away" in L2

Diegos Dad played for Brazil once.. You can't buy a Football Club in Brazil apparently.
