Through social networks, the Rio de Janeiro club formalized the arrival of the Chilean player in Rio de Janeiro. Thus, the double American champion with La Roja leaves behind him a European tour of 13 years.
The “Pitbull” is already from the “Admiral” . This Saturday morning Vasco da Gama brazilian football first division box, formalized the arrival of Gary Medel in Rio de Janeiro .
