He is the first recruit to experience the transfer window for the Navy and White. The Girondins de Bordeaux formalized this Wednesday the signing of Fransérgio for three years (and an additional year as an option). The 30-year-old Brazilian midfielder arrives from Sporting Braga, Portugal. The amount of this transfer is around 5 million euros according to our colleagues from the Team. He is the fifth recruit of the Bordelais after the two left-backs Ricardo Mangas (23 years old) and Gideon Mensah (23 years old), the Parisian defender Timothée Pembélé (18 years old) and the Honduran winger Alberth Elis.
If we omit the inexpensive transfer of Issouf Sissokho this summer (300,000 euros), it has been over a year and a half since the club bought a player. The last player is Rémi Oudin, in January 2020, for 10 million euros (bonus included). Last season, the Girondins had multiplied loans without much success.

Last season he scored six goals and two assists in 30 meetings with Braga.

He is also a player who will be able to bring physical density in an environment sometimes considered too frail or lacking in aggressiveness. His 1.87m also allowed him to score around 15 headed goals. A aggressiveness which, like Otavio, has earned him missing matches: he received seven yellow cards and one red last season.
