Lokomotiv Moscow Signs Felipe Caicedo

Lokomotiv Moscow has completed signing of Ecuadorian international Felipe Caicedo.

The arrival of the twenty-year old striker is another mark on his well travelled resume, each showing glimpses of his vast talent but through misfortune or simply changing administrations he has been unable to find a home.

Far more than an attack with pace, Felipe Caicedo demonstrates a keen eye for the goal as evidenced in his recent play in the Copa América, highlighted by his two-goal performance against Brazil.

Moving to Swiss Super League powerhouse FC Basel in 2006 as a seventeen year-old he made the move to Manchester City two years later. After shining brightly he lost his starting berth during the clubs spending spree and was later loaned to Lisbon’s Sporting at the start of the 2009 campaign. Unable to make his mark in Lisbon, he was later loaned to La Liga sides Málaga and later Levante, where he restored his confidence and goal scoring abilities.

The addition of Felipe Caicedo does pose an interesting series of personnel questions for the Railwayman who now have a glut of attacking talent with Dmitri Sychev, Victor Obinna, Maicon, Aleksandr Marenich and Baye Djiby Fall.
