SK Rapid Wien have signed Brazilian forward Fabiano after he impressed on a recent trial.

One-year deal
The 21-year-old, formerly of AA Ponte Preta, has been training and playing friendlies with the Austrian club for a fortnight and has earned a 12-month contract with an option for a further extension. However, the club are still waiting for final clearance to field Fabiano and although it is expected to be received in the next few days he has missed the deadline to play in both their Austrian Bundesliga opener tomorrow against FC Wacker Tirol and their UEFA Intertoto Cup second leg at ŠK Slovan Bratislava on Saturday as Rapid defend a 3-1 lead. "This concludes our transfers for this summer," said Rapid sporting director Alfred Hörtnagl.
