Roberto Carlos sign for Shrewsbury pub team
On Deadline Day, the transfer market for top-flight clubs throughout Europe closed, yet the Sunday League team secured a spectacular deal for just £5 using eBay Dream Transfer.
Roberto Carlos a former Real Madrid left-back defender has joined Shrewsbury pub team Bull in the Barne United. Yes, the Bullet Man has returned!
Seven years after retiring from the game, the 48-year-old and current Real Madrid ambassador will make a substitute appearance in the Shrewsbury & District Sunday Football League.
Roberto Carlos was a forerunner of the modern-day full-back position, joining Real Madrid in 1996 after a brief time at Inter Milan, and earning 125 caps for the Brazil national team over a 15-year period.
Will he stop by the local for a pint? Will he go to the Shrewsbury museum and art gallery, or will he do something more cultural?
