FC Porto's Walter goes on loan to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cruzeiro-c38870
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 striker Walter has signed for Brazilian club Cruzeiro on loan for the rest of the season.
The 22-year-old has a decent goal-scoring record at Estadio do Dragao but could not establish himself due to the presence of big name players. In the last couple of seasons, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Radamel-Falcao-c30276 has been the undoubted starter at the helm and his attacking prowess
made it difficult for him to be left out of the team.
While Porto sold the Colombian this summer, they also acquired the services of Kleber, who has yet again been picked ahead of Walter by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hulk-c16436 and in the end chose Kleber as the man
to lead the line.
The former Brazilian U-20 had to be content with a place on the bench but still managed to score 6 goals in 8 appearances for the Portuguese champions this term, taking his overall tally to a very respectable 16 goals in 33 outings.
However despite his record, the Dragons were keen to offload the player and eventually agreed to a deal with Campeonato Brasileiro Série A side, Cruzeiro.
While the proposal is not a permanent one, it has been accepted by both the concerned parties and it will ensure that the former São http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/José-c19246 man will stay at Arena do Jacaré for at least the conclusion of the term.
Although it has not been revealed by any official, it is thought that the contract will include an option to acquire the forward on a permanent basis if the Fox are impressed by his talents.
The club will also pay the full amount of his wages, which left the burden off Porto, who had been paying him despite not fully utilizing his services.
The player’s agent also confirmed the temporary move and said that everything was all right and that there were no more twists.
“Everything is all right and there are no more twists," Teodoro http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fonseca-c13888 was quoted as saying.
After sending Walter on loan, FC Porto will need to add more reinforcements to their side and the club have been following the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Teofilo-Gutierrez-c34789, who could end up signing for them in the winter window.
