FC Porto have completed the loan signing of 35-year-old Flamengo striker Liedson.

Liedson, who previously played in Portugal with Sporting Lisbon, will join his teammates at the Estadio do Dragão until the end of the season.

The striker, who took Portuguese citizenship and represented Portugal 14 times at international level from 2009 until 2010, returned to his homeland in 2011, initially with Corinthians.

The striker scored five goals in 22 appearances for Flamengo last season, in what was a disappointing season for the club as they finished seventh.

Liedson spent eight years with Sporting from 2003 to 2011, scoring 116 goals in 214 appearances for the club.

The forward also took Portuguese citizenship and appeared 14 times for Portugal, scoring four goals.
