Asante Kotoko have signed Brazilian forward Michael Vinícius Silva de Morais on Wednesday.

The Brazilian striker formerly of Fluminense, Linkoping City and Vasalunds IF joins the Porcupine Warriors on a two-and-a-half year deal.

Michael Vinícius Silva de Morais becomes the second Brazilian signed and will team up with compatriot Fabio Gama, who joined Kotoko last year.

The Porcupine Warriors announced the deal via their official Twitter page on Wednesday.

The 27 year old will replace prolific forward Kwame Opoku, who departed the club earlier this month to join Algerian side USM Algers.
