Castillo - A Biography.
After narrowly missing out in trials for Liverpool, Tranmere and Bootle FC,
Castillo was rescued from the footballing scrap heap by the up and coming Bolivian side Guabira who spotted him turning on a six-pence in a game of 3 and in.
Trying to fit in with the skilful South American style of football may sound difficult, but having seen John Barnes' goal against Brazil in Sao Paolo over and over again, he felt he was more than ready. The first season saw Castillo smash the Bolivian goal scoring record of 42 goals in a season after only 7 games, an achievement which catapulted him to the heights of 'cuando el meteega' or in English 'He who Floats'. As a national hero Castillo lived the life of a king getting the first pick of all the best fruit n' veg that came on the market.
The following season started promising with 8 goals in his first game against local rivals Oriente Petrolero. The result sent shockwaves through the nation to such an extent that civil war was waged. Fearing for his own safety, Castillo fled Bolivia and made his way to football's spiritual home - Brazil. It was here that I realised that he was in fact sh*t at football and after attempting to kidnap Pele to use him as Castillo's coach, he was deported by slow freighter back to his mother's homeland of old blighty.
Arriving in the port of Southampton he was left penniless and homeless, but thanks to Britain's relaxed immigration policy there was a large community of Bolivians living down in the old dock town who worshipped Castillo as a demi-God and paid him to hang around.
Leicester Manager Micky Adams then heard of Castillo's availability and ensured he would be one of a number of new Foxes players this summer.
