Fabio May Be Loaned Out To Benfica

Fa­bio

Ac­cord­ing to the latest news­pa­per re­ports, Manchester United full back Fa­bio da Silva could be loaned out to old European rivals Ben­fica next sum­mer. Al­though Fa­bio has been with Manchester United for al­most four years, the 21-year-old Brazil in­ter­na­tional de­fender is still strug­gling for a reg­u­lar first team place at Old Trafford.

The Pet­ro­polis born foot­baller star­ted out with his local out­fit Boa Es­per­anca be­fore he de­cided to join forces with Flu­min­ense of Rio de Janeiro in 2005. In Fe­bur­ary 2007, Fa­bio signed for Manchester United where the young tal­ent made his first team de­but when he came on as a sub­sti­tute for French in­ter­na­tional star Patrice Evra in a 2–0 friendly vic­tory over Pe­ter­bor­ough United at Lon­don Road in Au­gust 2008. A quick think­ing and speedy wing back, the of­fens­ive minded player likes to go for­ward with the ball and rap­idly turn de­fence into at­tack. Hope­fully, the South Amer­ican will ac­quire more first team ex­per­i­ence and be able to try and ful­fill his ob­vi­ous po­ten­tial in the Premier League.
