Atletico Ottawa announced the signing of Spanish midfielder Alberto Zapater, marking a historic transfer for the Canadian Premier League.
“People ask me, ‘Why come to the Canadian Premier League, why come to Ottawa?’ I’m all about enjoying the experiences. It’s an opportunity for me to learn English, it’s an opportunity for my family to learn English. I’m here to compete, I’m here to win. I still love playing and I’m here for the team, to be the best I can be.”
Zapater would move onto various top-tier leagues, including Italy’s Serie A with Genoa , Portugal’s Primeira Liga with Sporting CP and Russia’s Premier League with Lokomotiv Moscow, before returning to his hometown in 2016. Despite offers from teams across Europe, Zapater embraced a new challenge by embarking on his Canadian adventure.Zapater will be eligible to play for Atlético Ottawa when the summer transfer window opens July 5.
