Sky Sports saying an 18 year old Correira on way to sign. Anyone know anything about him? From Benfica apparently.

Think he’s from Sporting Lisbon... but yes looks like it’s happening.

Theres a thread about him b.

Cheers. I imagine we will try and get him to extend.

Not so sure about that... He's going to be 35 years old.

I could have sworn someone did a thread about this young man earlier today,which showed a picture of him and his agent at one of the Portugese Airports this morning.
Where did it go or was it on another thread.
Strange !!

John Terry must have been about 37 when he retired.
Ferno just looks like he`s got one of the best engines to keep going for at least another 12/18 months.

Hope you're right, but he did just miss 15 games through injury this last season. And seems to have picked up a knock at least at Copa America

I just think he`s more than capable of doing another stint after this coming season ... assuming this injury isn`t too worrying.

It's his knee that he hurt in the last derby,still not recovered completely,utter madness not taking the summer off,at his age buggered knees are not easy to get over

At the same time, he probably realised that it is his last chance to represent his country at major tournament, can’t blame him for that

Hope you are right but some players don’t decline slowly... some just fall off a cliff... and that’s that.

I understand his urge to do it,i just don't think it was the practical thing to do,Brazil v Argies is tomorrow night/wed morning,i hope if they don't get through he comes right home

I hope he goes to a cabana with no human contact (except for the attractive, flexible, adventurous female or male variety, whatever he prefers) for two full weeks...

Then comes home. ;-)

He is training in a knee brace and they are still playing him,he had better come back in one piece and none of the 3rd place team bollocks

You know my thoughts on third place games, so agreed there.

I just hope he gets some recreational time to decompress before coming back for the preseason.

Last year the world cup players got two weeks I think? I'm sure he'll get some time for holiday.
