Dallas sign Brazilian, not Denilson

After spending several weeks training with the club, Brazilian striker Ricardinho was officially added to the FC Dallas roster. The 19-year-old's work visa was processed, allowing his contract to be finalized.

In the official press release, coach Steve Morrow commented, "He's a great addition and I think he's gotten stronger as the days have gone on. He feels more comfortable now and I think we have seen that and he will show what he's capable of. We expect him to get better and better the longer he's here."

Ricardinho had joined Dallas from Atlético Paranaense, where he appeared in nine matches. Dallas officials remain quiet on whether RIchardihno might be joined by his elder countryman, Denilson (see post).
