Argentine forward Dante Isla Cacciavillani joins Bangor City

Bangor City have made Dante Isla Cacciavillani their second signing in the space of a week.

Cacciavillani joins the club after a spell in Australia with Adelaide Blue Eagles.

Before moving to Australia in February, he had also spent time in his homeland Argentina and Italy.

He is the second signing after the Citizens confirmed Giacomo Mello, a Brazilian midfielder, was joining them for the 2020/21 Cymru North season. 

“I am very happy with this opportunity and grateful to the club and the coach, Hugo Colace, for trusting in my ability,said Cacciavillani after making the move to Nantporth. 

“I will give my all so that we can return the club to where it belongs, which is the Cymru Premier.” 

The 25-year-old, born in Rio Cuarto, has played in Serie D, the fourth tier of Italian football.

He has played for clubs such as Astrea, Deportiva Berazategui, Fiumicino, Torrecuso, Union San Giorgio Sedico and Vigor Acquapendente. 

He scored 46 goals in 50 appearances in his career, with 26 of those coming in Serie D.

Commenting on the addition of his new forward, manager Hugo Colace said: “There is a reason his nickname is the tank, he is a physically strong player with his physique fitting the leagues style of football perfectly. 

Most importantly, he is a lethal finisher in the box.”
