well he was playing in superleague before the new quota rules came in, in feb 2007 so he'd qualify to become fed trained on that count ( assuming it doesnt matter that hes since left league - that bits unclear in rules). cant remember if he was classed as a kolpak though or whether him qualifying to play for England RU would exempt him form quota.
Would be a decent impact player to have available but dont think we could rely on him to play 80 minutes every week and as others have said his defence would probably be a worry.
