    they put a bid in but it was rejected because his club were holding out for more.

    Seems to similar to Henri Camara, pace to burn but poor finishing too much of the time. He used to get in great goalscoring positions for Birmingham then balloon it over the bar. Overrated in my opinion.

    he always caught my eye on MOTD, could turn defenders over with ease! Let's be honest, if he'd put away all the chances he created (alot of them by himself) we'd have no chance of signing him, he'd be AT LEAST a £5 million player, so let's just see what happens, i'm all for it!

    Fair enough people saying he can't finish but he has 14 goals from 16 games this season. Doesn't really tie together.

    Former Birmingham striker Christian Benitez continues prolif - IMScouting

    Cannot finish :rolleyes: I think the people that actually watch him know about his finishing rather than someone reading his goalscoring record.

    Also think this is the reason Birmingham didnt want him rather than his Birmingham facts

    I think everyone knows how twitter works. As I said, I wasn't claiming to have inside info that was iron clad, just that word on twitter was heating up.

    Its all good scoring in mexico but i saw him quite a bit at birmingham and he really couldnt finish for whatever reason, look whats happened to that boselli at wigan he was scoring easily at his former club, i would take benitez on loan happily to see how he does

    As I posted on another thread, does anybody have a link to a source that says he has just signed a new 3 year deal?

    Also, we might just get him on loan.. It would be ideal for Santos Laguna to up his value as a player. A chance of him being in the Champions League & scoring goals in Europe etc.
