Luís Fabiano set for Sevilla

Sevilla FC have snapped up the Brazilian international forward Luís Fabiano on a five-year contract from FC Porto.

Forward option
The 24-year-old will boost Sevilla's attacking options, especially amid concerns that Júlio Baptista may move on this summer after he struck 18 goals in 33 matches for the Andalusian team in the 2004/05 campaign.

International class
Luís Fabiano has scored six times in 12 appearances for Brazil and played every game of last year's Copa América triumph. His first spell in Europe came with French club Stade Rennais FC in 2000. After returning home to join São Paulo FC two years later, he then signed for Porto last August. Sevilla will enter the 2005/06 UEFA Cup in the first round.
