HE’LL GO DOWN as the strangest signing Manchester United ever made and he certainly never managed to make any impact on the club, despite his relatively high-profile capture.
Sir Alex Ferguson admitted he’d never seen him play, not even on video and that the deal happened quickly because Real Madrid were rumoured to be preparing an offer.
Inevitably, Bebe disappeared from view. He stayed at United for four years – eventually leaving joining Benfica in 2014 but his career has been littered with loans. Since 2010, the 25-year-old has featured for eight different clubs.
Right now, he’s in Spain with Rayo Vallecano and on Saturday, he scored his first goal for the club – an absolute screamer against Sevilla.
