Valletta FC have announced the signing of Brazilian wing back Victor Luiz.
The 25-year-old defender is a familiar face to Maltese football as in season 2021-22 he was on the books of Premier League side Santa Lucia.
In fact, he made 39 appearances with the Saints and left the club the following season when he agreed to Portuguese side Alverca.
Prior to his move to Maltese football, Luiz spent the majority of his career in Brazil where he was on the books of Cruzeiro and Londrina-PR.
In 2019, Luiz decided to move to Europe when he agreed to join Finnish top-tier side HJK Helsinki on a season-long loan.
At the end o fthis spell he returned back to Brazil where he was loaned by Cruzeiro to Villa Nova.
Luiz is the fourth South American player to join Valletta this summer as the Citizens have already signed defender Federico Vega, Juan Bolanos and Fernando Barrientos while earlier this week they completed the signing of Neil Micallef from Gudja United.
