Dubai's Hatta Club sign Brazilian forward Silva on loan

Xinhua, January 3, 2017 Adjust font size:

Dubai-based Hatta Club have announced the signing of Brazilian forward Rafael Silva on a six-month loan deal.

The move, confirmed on Hatta Club's official Twitter account on Monday, comes after Silva fell out of favor at Brazilian Serie A club Cruzeiro in 2016.

The 26-year-old will join compatriot Rafael Bastos at the United Arab Emirates side.

Hatta Club are currently ninth in the 14-team United Arab Emirates league standings with four wins from 12 matches.

Silva's career has also included spells at Portuguesa and Vasco da Gama. Endit
