Luís Fabiano heading home to São Paulo
Table of Contents
Brazil striker Luís Fabiano has rejoined former club São Paulo from Sevilla for €7.6 millon and could be playing for O Tricolor come April.
The 30-year-old enjoyed a hugely successful three-year spell at São Paulo earlier in his career, scoring 118 goals in 160 games before heading to Europe with FC Porto in 2004.
After a short spell in Portugal, Fabiano moved to Sevilla, where he scored 106 goals in all competitions and helped the Andalusian club win two UEFA Cups, a Spanish Super Cup, a European Super Cup, and two Copa del Rey titles.
He agreed a contract extension until 2013 in August but poor form and poor relations with the current Sevilla coach Gregorio Manzano have provoked the club's decision to sell him.
"Today is a very special day for me in my life, because I am returning to play for the team that I have always had in my heart. It is a dream to be able to go back," announced the player on his Twitter account.
He will be officially presented to to the media and fans on March 30.
