Youth product
The 26-year-old striker, a product of Espanyol's youth system, was originally tied to the Barcelona-based team until 2007 but has decided to commit himself further, despite interest from other Primera División clubs.
Happy month
Tamudo's 19 goals last season made him the third top scorer in Espanyol's history. He celebrated his return to the national team last week by registering twice in the friendly against Venezuela and kept his place in the squad for the FIFA World Cup qualifier against Bosnia-Herzegovina next month.
