Brazilian earns MTK move

Members

MTK Hungária FC have signed the Brazilian striker Welton da Silva from Hapoel Tel-Aviv.

Trial victory
MTK coach Sándor Egervári agreed terms with the 25-year-old after he impressed during a trial with the 1. Liga title challengers during their winter training camp in Cyprus. "I think I played well and didn't let the team down, and they obviously felt the same way. I just need to learn the language now," Welton said.

French fancy
A tall centre-forward, Welton played for Coritiba FC, Guarani FC and Grêmio Football Porto Alegrense in Brazil before moving to French side Le Havre AC. MTK lie second in the table, behind leaders Ferencvárosi TC on goal difference only. The Hungarian spring season has been postponed a week and will start on 7 March.
