The Philadelphia Union have signed the 6-foot-2 center back on loan from Brazilian side Tombense.
Having already added pieces to the Philadelphia Union attack, new sporting director Earnie Stewart has turned his attention to the back line.
The Union announced the signing of center back Anderson Conceicao on Wednesday, acquiring the 26-year-old on a season-long loan from Brazilian side Tombense.
Conceicao spent 2015 on loan to America Mineiro, making 30 appearances while helping the club achieve promotion to the top flight. The 6-foot-2 Brazilian also has had a stint in La Liga, playing 19 matches for Mallorca during the 2012-13 campaign.
