Claudio Adrián Cáceres (born 10 January 1982) is an Argentine former footballer who last played for Balcatta FC.[1]
Club career
[edit]Caceres started his professional career with English team Southampton[2] before spending a few years with lower Football League clubs including Yeovil Town, Hull City, Wycombe Wanderers, Brentford and Aldershot Town .
He moved back to Australia to play for Perth Glory for the second time in the inaugural A-League season. While putting in some good performances he was never a first team regular because of injury and moved to Melbourne Victory for the second A-League season, where he has reunited with former Perth Glory teammate, Mark Byrnes. The pair played together at Perth Glory, where they won National Soccer League (NSL) championship medals.
On 7 February 2008, Caceres signed a two-year deal with the Central Coast Mariners, which would start following the 2008 Asian Champions League.[3]
In August 2009, Caceres was released from the final year of his two-year contract with the Central Coast Mariners by mutual consent. He was snapped up by the Wellington Phoenix just days later,[4] and eventually scored his first goal for his new club on 18 December 2009 in a 1–1 draw with Adelaide United; however, this was later ruled to have been an own goal from goalkeeper Eugene Galekovic.
