Once the winter market is closed, some names begin to be revealed by which the Elche CF was interested during the month of January but that ended with a happy ending for Christian Bragarnik's entity. In that search for footballers, the pivot stayed Luke Silva, ex of Real Madrid and who is currently in the ranks of the Guild.
According to the GHZ media, the club from Elche last week proposed a loan with an option to buy by Lucas Silva, in case of reaching the permanence in the First Division. Now he is penultimate, two points from salvation and with two games pending in the first round (Barça and Sevilla).
The 27-year-old Brazilian midfielder arrived in Spain in the winter market of 2015, when Real Madrid paid 15 million euros to Cruzeiro for him. He started counting for Carlo Ancelotti, but little by little he lost place. He ended his time at the white club with only eight games played in the League and one in the Champions League.. He was loaned out to Marseille and when he returned to the Bernabéu to negotiate his loan to Sporting de Portugal, a heart abnormality was detected that was about to truncate his career. Luckily, everything was a scare.
After his return to the Brazilian league, he is now having a good time again. It has a contract until 2023 and In the last season he has played 54 official matches, with one goal on his private account. As GHZ has reported, Elche could return to the charge in summer, although as long as it achieves permanence in the First Division. And for this now, he is still looking for players, but who are unemployed.
