From partner club Bragantino: Liefering signs striker on loan

FC Liefering announces the signing of a striker.

The Salzburg club has loaned Yuri Leles from partner club Red Bull Bragantino. The 19-year-old attacking player scored seven goals in 14 appearances in the past CBF Brasileiro U20 season.

"We have known Yuri for several years, for example, when he played a tournament with us. He will initially join us on a one-year loan and gives us many options with his flexible style of play," says Liefering's managing director Manfred Pamminger.

Leles "can play practically any position in attack and is a technically very strong and dangerous goal-scorer. He has also already gained some high-level experience in Brazil."
