Zapata joins Villarreal
Tuesday 12 July, 2011
Udinese’s Zapata joins Villarreal
After almost 200 games for Udinese, Cristian Zapata has left the club for Spanish outfit Villarreal.
The Bianconeri have confirmed the transfer on Tuesday morning with a short note on their official website.
The Colombian, 25, joined Udinese in the summer of 2005 from Deportivo Cali in his homeland.
An imposing central defender, who can play as a right-back, Zapata was also tracked by Liverpool this summer.
Financial details regarding the switch have not been released.
Zapata played in 190 games for the Stadio Friuli outfit in all competitions, scoring five goals in the process.

Udinese are idots and I hope they get relegated next year. They deserve it more than Samp did. Zapata, Inler, Sanchez next.

Re: Zapata joins Villarreal
Pretty epic signing for Villarreal. They lack depth in defense but when all players are fit, they do have a good defense. Gonzalo Rodriguez is easily one of the best defenders in La Liga and together with Zapata I can only see him and Villarreal become better.
Now if they can only keep Rossi and get a quality midfielder to boot ...

Re: Zapata joins Villarreal
Udinese are now a joke and seem to be a selling club like Samp.
They do not deserve the CL with this disgraceful behaviour towards their fans.

Stupid Udinese, but even more stupid Bayern who are in dire need of defenders and did not act.

Udinese is not Napoli who got a target of becoming a regular top 4 team. They are feeder club who's main goal is to finish mid table or staying alive.

Re: Zapata joins Villarreal
Is Udinese in financial trouble? What's with them selling off all of it's players? Didn't they just qualify for the Champions League and they sell like they are relegated...what gives?
Great signing for Villarreal btw, hope they keep Rossi and keep improving

Re: Zapata joins Villarreal
Villareal have got quite an impressive squad, shame they're in a league with Barca and Madrid
Santi Cazorla
Guiseppe Rossi
Capdevila
Borja Valero
Zapata
Nilmar
All good players

Re: Zapata joins Villarreal
I can only see Di Natale and Isla being stand outs for Udinese in the CL next year.
I had high hopes for Udinese but not if they sell all their best players

Re: Zapata joins Villarreal
WTF is Udinese doing, come on men. I understand you being a selling aclub, but this is ridicilous. You will disgrace Seria A at the CL in this rate.
And @other clubs, couldn't you see a value buy here. Inter, you have a good but aging defence, you should have acted. Bayren too.
