A gamble made by Rafael Benitez to sign Alberto Aquilani from Roma at a costs of £18m when he even know the midfielder will miss out the start of the season due to recuperating from injury? Although he was once a starlet youngster which attracted the like of Arsenal and Chelsea to be interested at him at the age of 16, and played a big role in U16, U19 and U21 for the Italy squad before. But for the past 3 season, the Italian playmaker has been plague by injury, where he only managed to make 40 starts for Roma in all competition together.
You might defend Benitez by saying that every soccer player signing is a gamble make by the manager whereby they won;’t be confirm sure about the new signing can fit into the squad well, but to sign a player with this kind of past injury record at a hugh price, its is definitely a risky decision. Perhaps is the transfer markets being spoil by the big spending club like Man City and Real Madrid made Benitez got to act fast without thinking twice. Whether this signing will be flop or not, it shall remain to be seen.
