Playing Career
Sava started his career in Ferro Carril Oeste in 1993. In 1996, he moved to Boca Juniors. It wasn't long after his move to Boca, that he was sold on to Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata. In 2002, Sava was sold to Fulham for £2 million. Whilst at Fulham he is remembered for scoring a dramatic late equaliser against Middlesbrough and scoring twice as Fulham beat Liverpool. From there, he enjoyed a loan spell to Celta de Vigo. After a permanent move to Celta, he helped them secure promotion to the Spanish first division. He then moved to another Spanish second division team; Lorca Deportiva, but returned to Argentina in the middle of 2006 to play for Racing Club.
In 2008 he joined Arsenal de Sarandí and, the following season, he helped Quilmes achieve promotion to the Argentine Primera División. However, he did not stay with Quilmes in the Primera, instead returning to his first club, Ferro Carril Oeste, after 14 years. With Ferro, he played 6 games in the 2010–11 season of the Primera B Nacional, before deciding to retire. He played his last game in an away draw against Belgrano on September 11, 2010.

Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or career:
“A normal adolescent is so restless and twitchy and awkward that he can mange to injure his knee—not playing soccer, not playing football—but by falling off his chair in the middle of French class.”
—Judith Viorst (20th century)
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
