Kenneth Wegner , Danish B international on loan from Neuchâtel Xamax in Switzerland around 1990. Played a couple of reserve matches around the same time as Vince Hilaire.
Gary Thompson but we ended up with Garry Nelson instead. I can't recall anything about Gary Thompson beyond his name and the fact it was reported he'd signed. Nelse was a better buy for 50k though I'm sure.
I think when we played West Ham in Keith Peacocks 2nd benefit game, we had a Spanish full back called Juan Cobain and an unnamed Italian CB. Both vanished without trace.
One pre-season we gave Alan Dickens a few games, another time we had Michilichenko (ex Rangers). Anybody mention Nicola Berti?

Cobian went to Swindon, we also had David Kerslake at the same time...
Juan Cobian played in a league cup game at the Valley. Against Ipswich I believe.
Emeke Ifijagwa also signed. Played half a season in the reserves. Ended up at Barnet. Got caught up in in a scandal with John Fashnu. Think he was here on a false passport.
As for nearly signed?
John Kerr Paul McShane Sami Hyypia (Jonatan Johansson confirmed this)
I remember when we used to run the CAFC supporters team we were approached by a Turkish chap playing for a professional club over there, we nearly signed him but talks broke down over how often he would need to take the kit home & wash it....
Kevin Thompson and Scott Brown from Celtic when Les Reed was here. And Stephen Pressley too. We almost signed Clint Dempsey as well but he went to Fulham instead.

Berti played in a trial match at welling. Looked overweight and disinterested .

Oh no wait, he was just training with us to inspire the youngsters.... Meh

A goalkeeper ( Polish)? Who signed for Man City.
I think he was only an unused sub.
Matt Javis chose Wolves over us as well iirc.
