The first professional Grisales´s match was vs River Plate in Supercopa in 1997, in Monumental stadium. In 2000, Grisales arrive to San Lorenzo and returned to Atlético Nacional. In 2001, he played Copa América and wins the first national team title. He was born in Bello (Antioquia) in 1975, and has 28 years old.
Thanks for the info. Debut in 97, sounds about right for a 28 year old. No word yet on how he`s doing in training, a decision will probably be made this time next week. From what I`ve heard of him, lets give him a go. If we`re paying Hadji £500,000 to LEAVE we may aswell spend the same amount for Grisales to join us.
A Freddy Indurley Grisales, nuestro famosísimo 'Totono', le está sonriendo la vida. Su buen fútbol ya es visto en el 'viejo continente' y posiblemente se quede allá, bajo los colores del Aston Villa inglés. Sólo falta que se entiendan Atlético Nacional y el club británico en términos de dinero para que este gran jugador paisa se una a Juan Pablo Angel en el club 'villano' y se convierta en otro jugador colombiano que triunfe en el fútbol de Europa. Suerte 'Totono'. I found this on enlajugada.com, it basically says that if Atl.Nacional and Aston Villa come to an agreement on money matters, "Totono" will become a Villan...is that true? have they talked to the player himself? or someone from Villa?
Excuse me. Debut in 96 (River 2- Julio Cruz y Roberto Monserrat, Nacional 2- Francisco Mosquera y John Jairo Tréllez), first round in Sudamerican Supercopa. In 2002, Galatasaray wanted Grisales, and after Copa Suramericana 2003 Sao Paulo (Brazil) for the chilean team manager Roberto "Cóndor" Rojas.
Yes. He played with Juan Pablo Ángel in Atlético Nacional in 1996-1997: Usually Peláez played with: René Higuita José Fernando Santa Luis Carlos Perea Iván Ramiro Córdoba Diego Osorio Mauricio Serna Herman Gaviria Alexis García Freddy Grisales (Oswaldo Mackenzie) Juan Pablo Ángel John Jairo Tréllez
Mmmm, I can read your question in two ways, firstly, can I take pictures of the Villa players training? No. The training ground is hard to get to, and I`m not sure I could be there at the right times. Secondly, is it possible for anyone to take pictures, are spectators allowed to watch and take photographs? I`m not sure about this. A few years ago people were allowed in to watch training sessions, but I`m not sure if that still happens. I`ll look out for any photo`s of Grisales training with the squad and post them here if I find them. Thanks Diego, for the information you posted here about Grisales`s playing career. It`s interesting he`s played along side JP before at club level.
Re: Re: Freddy Grisales A very ugly animal. Actually, thats just what our midfield needs. It`s a bit lightweight at the moment.
I`ve just read on the official Aston Villa site that we won`t be signing Grisales. O`Leary said: `He`s a good player but not what we`re looking for`. I`m sad about that, maybe there is another signing lined up, like Solano, we`ll see, only 5 days left in the transfer window.
yup, heres the list hes been linked with that I know of: Boca Jrs. (at some point) Estudiantes de La Plata Colon de Santa Fe (creo que tambien los vi) LUQ (Ecuador) Alianza Lima y un equipo en Chile, no me acuerdo quien...
Totono needs a new manager/agent Why a player as gifted as Grisales cannot get to a team in one of the big leagues? Furthermore, why it seems to be always a problem with all the teams interested on him? San Lorenzo failed on the agreement back in 2000, and now he went all the way to England for nothing, since apparently, the Villains were not truly interested in him. And now he is getting offers from second-tier leagues and so-so teams. Something must be wrong with his agent, maybe they ask too much or maybe he does not go to the right people. http://www.selcol.com/index.php?noticia=1723
si, talvez asi fue, porque la verdad es que en el sitio oficial el tecnico no dio razones muy claras al decir que era muy chico? o sea que no tenia el fisico para jugar allá, ahi me di cuenta que esa no era la razon, porque Vassel mide 1.70cm y el Peruano Lozano es de la talla de "Totono" y al el lo quieren allá tambien, por ahi hay mas reportes de toda la cantidad de plata que el Aston Villa a perdido en los ultimos años, y en villatalk.com se habla de la posibilidad de quedarsen si jugadores para la proxima temporada, tubieron que cancerlarles los contratos a 5 jugadores por falta de dinero, no podian seguir pagandoles el sueldo...al final de esta temporada, si hay ofertas jugosas por JPA, Villa lo va a vender, necesitan la plata....ese equipo va de c*los para el estanco......
Its official Solano ya es del Aston Villa http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/news;_y...g=afp-fbl_eng_pr_per_villa&prov=afp&type=lgns
directivo de nacional se sintio enganado y le mintieron! Claro que ayer, desde Buenos Aires, el periodista Ignacio Ilia, del diario El Día de La Plata, le informó que allá se maneja la posibilidad de que Totono vaya a Estudiantes, porque el técnico Salvador Bilardo quiere tenerlo.
now he is sick with a virus (common cold) and said NO to the national team friendly of the week! Ojala funcione bien su reemplazo, para que se quede por fuera.
Claro..que se quede por fuera lo mejor que tiene Colombia en este momento. Para un amistoso no vale la pena pero vos sabes que si fuera partido de eliminatoria jugaria. Mire lo que hizo con Nacional y tenia ese brazo todo dañado.
