And one more has gone. After losing Renato Augusto and Marcinho, is time to say goodbye to Souza. The striker is joining Panathinaikos - which already signed ex Fluminense’s right winger, Gabriel, and Arsenal’s midfielder, Gilberto Silva -, after the Greeks paid € 3 millions to count with the striker. Losing these three players we don’t have our attack anymore. Read the rest of this entry »
