    No mate the castillio at Everton was from Ecuador, midfielder and loaned from one of the Belgrade teams. This one is Spanish, here is his wiki page

    Xabier Castillo Aranburu (born March 29, 1986 in Durango, Spain) is a Spanish footballer currently playing for Real Sociedad as a left-back. He came up through the Sociedad B team and was loaned out to UD Las Palmas before making his full debut for Sociedad.

    I know it's off topic but anyone think Milan Misun might be the answer? Plenty of teams throughout europe play 18yr olds

    Get him in asap, LB sorted out. Now we'll look for a replacement if Nakamura leaves, a Striker or two to replace VOH and Samaras...

    £100,000 is not much of a gamble, got to be worth a punt, even if it doesnt work out we would be able to sell him back to a spanish club for a good bit more

    Hope he comes only 100k well worth the gamble and with the sort of teams looking at him we could make a fair whack on this lad ,

    He sounds a good player and in Spain they reckon its a done deal...

    Mundo Deportivo - El fichaje de Castillo por el Celtic, cerca de cerrarse

    Castillo apunta a la Liga escocesa o la Premier League - MARCA.com

    6th paragraph down on this(which is about transfers all over Spain) that its close to bbeing completed.
    Diario de Navarra - Antes cobrar que comprar - OSASUNA | MERCADO DE FICHAJES

    Look at the comments from fans here(In Spanish) but you can still make out that they want 6, 9, 10 and even 12 million euros compensation for him so he must be a quality player but we'd gte him for a lot less because we're not a Spanish team :D

    todays express

    The Hoops are also hardening their interest in left-back Castillo, whose contract at Spanish Second Division side Real Sociedad expires on June 30. The 23-year-old wants to move to Britain and the Hoops’ main rivals for his signature appear to be Bolton.

    Hope this happens, this is a win win deal for us
