Bolton Wanderers have completed the signing of striker Rodrigo Moreno from Benfica on a season-long loan deal.
The 19-year-old- a Brazilian-born Spanish U21 international - joins on loan from the Portuguese giants, subject to international clearance, after only recently signing for Benfica from Real Madrid.
Trotters boss Owen Coyle had hoped to sign the player directly from Madrid, as he did with full back Marcos Alonso earlier in the summer, but he has now got his man on loan at least.
Wanderers assistant manager Sandy Stewart said on the club’s website: "We watched Rodrigo play alongside Marcos in the Real Madrid B team last season and we were obviously interested in signing the two of them.
"He went to Benfica as part of the Angel di Maria deal (when the Argentine superstar signed for Real) but we still chased his signature and now we are delighted to eventually get him to our football club.
"We are looking forward to working with him and we are confident that he will bolster what is already a strong squad of players.
"He is a quick, exciting young player who can play up front and in wide positions. Hopefully the fans will really take to him.
"Like Marcos, he will take a period of time to bed in because he will be playing in a different country, but we are very confident that he will have a successful time here."
