Stélvio signs on with Braga

Angolan-born teenager Stélvio Cruz has been handed a first professional contract by SC Braga - the midfielder signing a five-and-a-half year deal.

Great prospect
The 18-year-old midfielder, a Portuguese Under-17 international, joined the youth department at Braga during the 2000/01 season, having come to Portugal when he was very young. Regarded as a great prospect for the future, he is still playing in the youth and reserve teams at Braga, who will face Parma FC in the UEFA Cup Round of 32.
