Excellent Scouting Network?

The following comes from worldsoccer.com;

"I (Gavin Hamilton, editor of World Soccer magazine) got a phone call this morning from an English Championship club (I will spare them the embarrassment of naming them) who have just signed a foreign player who had been out of contract since the summer, having previously played for a number of well-known clubs in a major European league. Did I know anything about the player, as his Wikipedia entry only ran to a few lines?

Apparently, the player had impressed enough during a trial to be offered a short-term deal".

After I read this, I went to the bbc site to see if any Championship side had signed any oversea player, this is what I found;

"Norwich have signed right-back Juan Velasco on a free transfer, subject to international clearance.
The 30-year-old has impressed Canaries boss Glenn Roeder while on trial with the Carrow Road club and has earned a three-month contract.

Velasco played 279 games in La Liga during his time with Sevilla, Celta de Vigo, Atletico and Espanyol, from where he was released in 2007.

He has earned four full caps for the Spanish national team".

Looks like the pieces of the puzzle might fit to me.
