If it's true that Coventry's Dacosta is incoming to Town, I was trying to think of overseas players who've donned Salop colours. I seem to remember an udder French player, a left back, who played for us. Can't remember his name.
You recall any?

Can I stake a claim for Salop legends Moha El Ouriachi, Bahrudin Atajic and Cristian Lopez?

Just to take this one step further, have we actually signed anyone from a foreign club? I think we have signed someone from Ireland but anyone else? Didn't we sign someone from a Dutch side once?
Other than that, I guess we have picked up most of those listed above from English clubs?
Do we have or have we ever had anyone scouting abroad?

Also Marko Marosi And the goalie from Wolves Matija Sarkic's family originate from Montenegro (though it was still part of Serbia when he was born and only seceded in 2006). However, his father was a diplomat, thus MS was born in Grimsby (plays for Montenegro internationally though).

Not that long back and I think we were keen to keep a hold of him.👍
