Kaku saga nears end as transfer paperwork granted to Al-Taawoun

Over the weekend news outlet Al-Riyadh reported that Al-Taawoun FC of the Saudi Professional League had cleared the final significant hurdle in their quest to finalize the signing of attacking midfielder Alejandro Gamarra, better known as Kaku.

The report claimed they now possessed the “international card” for Kaku, likely referring to the International Transfer Certificate required by FIFA regulations for a player to enter competition in a new country. The Argentine-born attacker with six caps for the Paraguay national team began training with the Saudi Professional League club last week and should be available for selection in today’s match against Al-Ittihad.
