Red Bulls sign Brazilian striker Fábio Roberto Gomes Netto

The New York Red Bulls announced the addition of Oeste striker Fábio Roberto Gomes Netto. The 23-year-old Brazilian is joining the club on loan through June of 2021 with an option to buy. He will “occupy an international roster spot.”

According to Globo Esporte, Fábio had interest from “various clubs in Série A and Série B.” NETVASCO names Ponte Preta as one of the pursuing parties. Financial details of the move are not available, but his contract with recently relegated Oeste lasts through the 2023 season. The draw of playing in America intrigued the new father, an obviously preferable option to Série C.
