ISL Transfer: Kibu Vicuna’s Kerala Blasters in talks with star Spanish forward

XtraTime Web Desk: Kibu Vicuna begins his work in the transfer window, as star Spaniard Igor Angulo is seemingly on his way to the Indian Super League after a successful four-year spell with Polish club Gornik Zabrze. A host of ISL clubs, including Kerala Blasters, are keeping a tab on the 36-year-old forward, Sportskeeda has learnt.

Angulo has been a proficient goal-scorer in the Polish top tier, having scored 11 goals in 2019-20. He joined Gornik Zabrze in 2016, and has been an important part of their team ever since.

The Spaniard produced eye-catchy displays for Athletic Bilbao’s Under-19 side and deservingly earned a senior appearance in the 2002/03 La Liga season. Angulo also played with Fernando Llorente at CD Basconia, a fourth-tier club situated in Basque Country in Spain.

The forward failed to live up to the billing and appeared just four times upon his return to San Memes Stadium from Basconia. In a bid to revive his career, Igor Angulo was loaned out to Gimnastics during the 2005 winter transfer window and Cannes during the 2006 winter transfer window respectively. Igor spent a year with Athletic Bilbao before bidding adieu to his boyhood club in 2008.

Before a foreign move to Cyprus outfit EN Paralimniou in 2014, he plied his trade for three Spanish clubs including Ecija Balompie, CD Numancia, and Real Union. His back-to-back impressive spells with Greek second division clubs Apollon Smyrnis and Platanias helped him earn a move to Poland’s top division.
