Saviola

Javier SAVIOLA 68 ST

Javier is the clubs record purchase, joining the Owls' junior team from River Plate in a setup record purchase of �25,200,000 on turn 8 of season 6.

The manager has astutely protected the young striker as he has got himself accustoned to the pace of Premiership football.

The Rabbit (as he is nick-named) has a long line of strikers ahead of him in competition for a first-team place. However his pace and eye for a goal makes him stand out. His non-EEC status hinders his first team selection.

Nonetheless in Javier's first (part) season for the club he scored 4 goals in 10 games to show the promise that Sheffield Wednesday fans can look forward to.
