Man City forward Moreno joins Brazil's Flamengo on loan

Xinhua,January 17, 2018 Adjust font size:

RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan. 16 (Xinhua) -- Manchester City forward Marlos Moreno has joined Flamengo on a year-long loan, the Brazilian club announced on Tuesday.

The Colombia international had been on loan at Spanish side Girona, where he made just four appearances in six months.

Moreno arrived in Rio de Janeiro for a medical on Saturday and took part in his first training session on Monday, Flamengo officials said.

Manchester City signed Moreno in August 2016 from Colombia's Atletico Nacional but the 21-year-old is yet to make his debut for Pep Guardiola's team.

He has been capped eight times for Colombia and scored one goal. Enditem
