Napoli Signs Eduardo Vargas

Napoli announced the signing of Chilean forward Eduardo Vargas once the January 2012 transfer window opens. Vargas will leave Universidad de Chile with the respect of his club on a deal worth an estimated $15.7 million. Vargas was being scouted by many top clubs in Europe, which include Chelsea, Valencia, and even Bayern Munich. In the end however, he chose Napoli. The 22 year old Chilean scored 17 goals in 51 matches for Universidad over the past two seasons and scored twice for Chile in a 3-2 loss to Spain in a friendly in September. I think Napoli made a good decision to go out and sign Vargas and believe that they just got a lot tougher offensively, and overall harder to beat.
