Ecuador striker Bolanos joins Brazil's Gremio

Xinhua, February 8, 2016 Adjust font size:

Gremio have signed Ecuador international striker Miler Bolanos, the Brazilian club confirmed on Sunday.

In a statement on their official Twitter account, Gremio said they secured Bolanos on a three-year deal from Ecuadorian outfit Emelec.

China's Changchun Yatai and reigning Brazilian Serie A champions Corinthians were also reportedly interested in the 25-year-old.

Bolanos was the leading scorer in Ecuador's top flight last year with 25 goals from 34 matches.

He scored 61 goals from 105 matches for the Guayaquil-based outfit, whom he joined from the now defunct US Major Soccer league club Chivas.

Bolanos has been capped 12 times for Ecuador, scoring six goals. Endit
