Going on Private I'm guessing Declan Benjamin but only because it fits but the rest of it has passed me by!

Mateo Corbo
ball = orb trapped between co (firm)
Nothing = O in mate (pal)
And he was the first from River Plate to sign

Correct. Just for future reference, am I supposed to declare it's an anagram or not?

You're supposed to hint at it. For example:
Confused big striker, pass! or similar.
My rationale for Colin Booth was probably too intricate:
Co = firm
Bo = pal
o = nothing
first from plate: plinth - p
However, I suspect you're right, dammit.
