QPR OFFICIAL SITE EXCLUSIVE: R'S SIGN PELLICORI
Posted on: Thu 30 Jul 2009
Queens Park Rangers Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Italian striker Alessandro Pellicori.
The 28 year-old, who has been on trial with Jim Magilton's First Team squad for the majority of pre-season, has penned a three year deal.
Speaking to www.qpr.co.uk, Magilton expressed his delight at bringing the former Avellino front-man to Loftus Road.
"Alessandro has done well with us during his trial period," said Magilton.
"He's a natural goalscorer and we're delighted to add him to the already healthy attacking options we have at our disposal.
"He'll take time to settle over here, but we're really excited by his arrival."
Pellicori began his professional career at Cosenza, before moving on to Lecce in 2000.
He made his Serie A top-flight debut in January 2001, before spending time on loan at a variety of Serie C Clubs, before settling down at Grosseto.
Twenty-two goals in 52 starts represented a very decent return, but he was soon on the move again, this time signing for Serie B outfit Piacenza.
However, he made just nine starts for Piacenza and penned a deal with Serie B rivals Cesena in January 2007.
That summer he moved on to newly-promoted Avellino, scoring an impressive 18 goals in 38 starts.
Pellicori will wear squad number 12.
