Article body
Feyenoord have reached an agreement with CD Universidad Católica over the transfer of Jorge Acuña.
Favourable impression
The Chilean international has been on trial with the Rotterdam club at their training camp in Spain. The 24-year-old midfield player appeared in three friendly matches and made a favourable enough impression on coach Bert van Marwijk to earn a contract until summer 2006.
Agreement reached
Meanwhile, Korean Republic midfield player Nam-Il Kim will stay in the Netherlands this season after Feyenoord reached an agreement with K-League side Chun-nam Dragons for Kim to play until the end of the season for their feeder side, SC Excelsior.
