Hertha sign Mineiro


Hertha Berlin on Wednesday signed veteran Sao Paulo midfielder Carlos Luciano da Silva on a two-year contract.

'Mineiro', 31, will join his friend and fellow Brazilian Gilberto at the Bundesliga side.

"We're very happy to have completed the deal," said Hertha manager Dieter Hoeness just hours before the end of the January transfer window.

"Mineiro is a completely flexible player who will fit in great in our team," he added.
