Picture Walter Samuel - fine young defender (Allsport).

WALTER SAMUEL

Position: Defender
Born: 22.03.78
Club: Roma

Excellent defender who at his comparitively tender age has a lengthy international future ahead of him.

Can play at centre-back - his club position at Roma - or left-back.

Has impressed in the Italian cpaital since joining from Boca Juniors in the summer of 2000.

Immediately became a favourite with the fans as he helped Roma to the Scudetto.

Has been a regular in the Argentina side thoroughout the qualifying campaign, missing just one of the 16 games, usually forming a partnership at the back with Roberto Ayala.

Injects pace into the defence but is also a strong defender who is good in the air.
