A veritable powerhouse the 27 year old Uruguayan was signed on loan from Hammarby in the January 2008 transfer window. A swashbuckling central midfielder Eguren quickly won his place in the starting eleven. He gets through a phenomenal amount of work in games and wins a lot of tough ball in the midfield. He is the perfect foil for Marcos Senna, Eguren gives him the ability to push forward a bit more. Although seen as a destructive player Eguren has the footballing ability to play in a side like ours. He's solid on the ball and a good passer. His transfer was made permanent this summer and I was delighted, he was definitely our signing of the season last year and hopefully he can repeat his efforts this time round.
