[LOANED OUT] Camilo Hernandez leaves on loan

https://twitter.com/SDHuesca/status/883728000738631681

Off to SD Huesca for 1 year

I know many of you will be disappointed, a real fan's favourite at the Vic

 

Gutted. I'm very pleased I didn't renew this year.

 

Crown jewels. Asset stripping. Etc.

 

Lol who is he?

 

Would have thought he'd fit the system alongside Berhuis

 

Said too easily these days, but legend.

 

Seems to be an 18 year-old Colombian striker.
Physically he looks a cross between Aguero and Tevez. Or a younger Acuna.
Hopefully his ability is closer to the former two than the latter.

 

This c*** has gone, eh? Good riddance. Hopefully Deeney next.

Etc etc etc...

 

Is he ex-Granada but when Gino sold out he signed for WFC?

 

Silva out.

 

Will never play for us blah blah blah.

Having said that he scored 20 goals in the Colombian 2nd Division as a 16/17 year old, then moved to a top division club and scored 4 in 8 starts. He also scored twice as a 17 year old for the Colombian u20s in the South American Championship earlier this year. I hope the various lower league clubs in Spain and Italy that he'll be loaned out to in the next few years enjoy his talents.

 

Also, interestingly enough his full name is Juan Camilo Hernandez.

So either Juan Camilo was not enough, or surest sign yet that Zuniga is being sold...

 

missing piece of someone's jigsaw

 

Makes me wonder how many other players there are that we own that I never knew existed

 

Not Cucho Noooooooooo !!!!!!

 

I had a look too, certainly looks a talent.

Gino must agree, given he's flying this one about as far under the radar as it's possible to go.

 

Good stats .

I wonder if we could field an alternate reality team full of all the players that don't exist until we see them , and then they do exist .

"A player only exists when witnessed by an independent observer ."

We could call this team Heisenberg Utd.

Nothing like a bit of particle physics based humour to brighten up a Sunday morn eh boys .

 

The scientists at CERN are using the large hydron collider to prove that he exists. If they discover this 'God player' it will re-write the laws of football.

 

It nearly worked in cycling. Edvald Higgson Boson almost won a stage of the Tour de France this week

 

The segunda division is no mickey mouse league. If he performs well this season, he will have a shot in the La liga on loan. 2 years in Spain and he'll have his Spanish passport and be able to come to back to Watford and play.

With his goalscoring in Columbia, I think this is one to be excited about.

 

Wobby doing some research and contacting a journo based in Colombia for the scoop on this lad:

http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sp...ez__one_of_Colombia_s_most_exciting_talents_/

 

He'll never play for us and end up at a lower/mid-table Spanish team for the bulk of his career.

 

maybe. he's only 18 so i wouldnt expecte to even have him at the club until he's at least 20-21.

Pretty highly rated judging by this podcast, be interesting to see how he gets on out on loan.

 

Care to summarise the podcast a bit? Thanks

 

I was half listening to the whole thing (might go back later and re-listen) but:

He was going to quit football at age 15 to chase a more realistic job for his family but entered the Colombian equivalent of a local county tournament where a scout for Colombian second division side Deportivo Pereira spotted him and demanded he be signed by the end of the day. The scout got his wish and he was signed, within a year (aged just 16) he'd made his first team debut and by 17 had captained the team. He's a fan favourite wherever he goes (Deportivo Pereira have one of the largest fanbases in the 2nd division) and is capable of playing anywhere just behind the striker, often utilised as a second striker, with a good goal to game ratio. Granada then signed him and loaned him to a bigger team in Colombia (America Cali) where the fans loved him but he got little game-time, but he impressed whenever he came on. They discussed his chances of getting a work permit (slim at present), but he did well at a youth tournament with Colombia and is likely highly rated within the international setup.
