PROFILE
Chile international Mark Gonzalez has been signed on a year's loan from Spanish
side Albacete with a view to a permanent move to Anfield.
Gonzalez will arrive at Liverpool still in rehabilitation as he is currently
recovering from injury after damaging his cruciate ligament two weeks before the end of
the season against Levante, on May 8. He will hopefully be set for a return to action in
October.
He started his career in Chile playing for Universidad Catolica Santiago before
making the move to Albacete in 2004.
He is an inspirational young player with lightening pace who can play on either
flank or as a forward. Rafael Benitez labelled Gonzalez as the best young player in Chile
last season.
He was recommended to Benitez by Anfield's chief scout Paco Herrera, who used to
work at Gonzalez's current Spanish club, Albacete.
The Spanish side were relagated from La Liga last season but their task was made
even more harder due to the injury to Gonzalez.
An exciting talent, Gonzalez is a player that manager Rafael Benitez has high hopes
for at Liverpool.
