Liverpool Appoint Former Argentina Striker’s Brother As South American Scout

Liverpool has stepped up their operations in South America with the appointment of Diego Caniggia as the club’s new scout on the continent.

Caniggia is the brother of former Argentina striker Claudio Caniggia, who enjoyed an illustrious career, peaking in the early 1990s with spells at Roma, Benfica and Boca Juniors.

Brother Diego Caniggia has worked with Liverpool Director of Football Damien Comolli previously. The Frenchman employed the Argentine in the same capacity when Comolli was in charge of Tottenham Hotspur’s scouting department.
