Football Europe: Denílson makes Manisaspor move

/noticias.info/ Ambitious Turkish Superleague newcomers Manisaspor have landed Brazilian international midfield player Denílson on a one-year loan deal from Spanish side Real Betis Balompié.

International honours
The 27-year-old, part of the 2002 FIFA World Cup winning squad and capped 61 times overall up to 2003, has been at Betis since his world-record €32m transfer from São Paulo FC in 1998, save for a loan spell at CR Flamengo in 2000/01 after Betis were relegated to the Segunda División. A Copa Libertadores and European/South American Cup winner with São Paulo, Denílson's last Betis appearance came in the 1-0 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round first-leg win at home to AS Monaco FC last week.

'Extremely happy'
Manisaspor spokesman Kenan Yarali said: "We are extremely happy to welcome a world-class player to Manisa. We have also put a clause in the contract allowing us to borrow him again next season. He will arrive in our city very soon." The club lie second in the nascent Superleague table, having drawn 2-2 against MKE Ankaragücü before winning 5-0 at Malatyaspor. notas_de_prensa_archivo
