The club refused to disclose the transfer fee and salary.

The Brazilian player had competed for Hoàng Anh Gia Lai club in 2016, in which he scored five goals. He, however, broke his leg during a V.League match and could not play until the end of the event. He had to return home that year.

After recovering from his injury, Moreira returned to Việt Nam in search of job opportunities and made a deep impression on SLNA.

According to SLNA’s leaders, Moreira has good skills and is suitable with the playing method of SLNA players.

At present, the club has only two foreign players, including Nigerian striker Michael Olaha, who competed for Abia Warriors in the Nigeria Professional Football League in 2015. Olaha has been playing for SLNA since January 2017.

In last year’s V.League, SLNA ranked eighth with 34 points after 26 matches.
