Portuguese International http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Edinho-c11950 claims that he wants to extend his contract at Academica and ply his trade for the club for at least one more term.
The 29-year-old has proven himself as a journey man as he has travelled nearly all of Europe in search of playing opportunities.
Initially starting with Almada, he later moved to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011.
After signing with Malaga CF, he has returned to the Primeira Liga on loan with Academica and although he hasn’t featured for the first team, he claims that he is happy at the helm and would be delighted to extend his stay at Estádio Cidade de Coimbra.
At Malaga, he didn’t feature in any game during the first half of the campaign and was subsequently farmed out by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Manuel-c23383 Pellegrini.
The Students found a perfect match in the player, as they had recently sold Ibrahim Sissoko to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/VfL-Wolfsburg-c40881 and needed recruits in the attacking department.
After acquiring his services, the club have the option of tying him on a permanent deal if they are impressed by his performances and according to Edinho, he would be delighted with that.
"Every day that passes I feel more adapted here. I feel good and I want to stay longer at Academic until next season, which is a hypothesis that I like. Let's see what happens,” the former AEK Athens man was quoted as saying.
While Academica have not made any statements regarding a permanent deal, it is certain that they do need a proven goal threat up-front. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pedro-c29582 Emanuel’s men have terminated Jerry Sitoe’s contract and his departure has freed up space in the squad.
Edinho has already plied his trade with some of Europe’s best clubs and also boasts International experience with the Seleccao. His decision to stay with the Stout One could prove to be beneficial for both parties, as he would get regular playing time and
the team would benefit from his predatory instincts in front of goal.
