Orlando City SC continued building their roster this week adding former Brazilian international and Real Madrid forward Julio Baptista. The move adds another element to the Lions attack and could have a significant impact on their budding star.
Known as the “Beast”, Baptista has a resume that includes significant time with some of Europe’s finest clubs. Sevilla, Real Madrid, Arsenal and Roma are among the clubs Baptista has applied his trade for over the years. At 34 years old, he is not the same player who was so highly touted when he joined the likes of Zidane and Beckham in Madrid.
