Aston Villa Announce Signing of Atletico Madrid Goalkeeper Andre Moreira With Love Island Tweet

Aston Villa have completed the signing of goalkeeper Andre Moreira on a season-long loan from Atletico Madrid, announcing the move with a brilliantly cringe worthy Love Island tweet following the conclusion of the cult reality show this week.

Moreira originally joined Atletico from Ribeirao in his native Portugal where he was a younger teammate of Manchester City stopper Ederson.

However, the 22-year-old is yet to play a first team game for the Madrid side and has instead spent the last few seasons on loan with Moreirense, Uniao Madeira, Belenenses, Braga and Belenenses again back in his native Portugal.
