Former Brazil international joins Hai Phong Cement

Former Brazil international Denilson has joined Vietnamese outfit Hai Phong Cement. The 31-year-old was once the world's most expensive player following a £21.5million move from Sao Paulo to Real Betis in 1998. However, the 2002 World Cup winner failed to make a significant impact in Europe and he moved on for spells in the Far East and the Americas. Denilson has now trained with Hai Phong as he joins the Vietnamese V-League club for the second half of the season. He told Thanh Nien: "I don't know anything about Vietnamese football. I come to Vietnamese football with my passion."
