Newly-promoted Marsaxlokk have reached an agreement to sign experienced striker Tiago Fonseca.
“We are delighted to announce that Brazilian striker Fonseca signed a new one-year contract with the Blues,” the newly-promoted side said in a statement.
The 34-year-old Brazilian striker, last season played in the Indian I-League with Real Kashmir F.C. scoring 7 goals in 9 matches.
“In Malta, Tiago played with Hibernians F.C. and Floriana F.C, winning the Premier League with the Greens.
“On behalf of Marsaxlokk F.C. we welcome Tiago Adan Fonseca to our team and wish him the best of luck!”
The Brazilian forward is a familiar face in Maltese football as the prolific forward has made a name for himself during spells with Hibernians and Floriana.
The 34-year-old striker arrived in Malta in 2018 when he signed for Hibernians and enjoyed a very prolific campaign which has seen him score 11 goals in 25 league appearances to help the team set up a championship decider with Valletta.
The following season Fonseca moved to Floriana and helped the club to the Premier League title before returning to Hibernians for the second part of the 2020-21 campaign.
In the last year, Fonseca returned to Brazil where he played for Retro before he headed to India for a short spell with Real Kashmir.
