Gil Vicente is set to receive a significant boost to their defense with the return of Jonathan Buatu. The Angolan central defender will return to Gil Vicente after Angola's elimination from the group stage of the African Nations Cup.
Who is Buatu?
Buat is one of the key players in Gil Vicente's defense, which is currently fourth in the league. He has 15 games and is one of the most important players on the team.
What happened in the African Nations Cup?
In the African Nations Cup, Buatu was a starter in the loss to South Africa (2-1) and the draw with Zimbabwe (1-1), but was on the bench in the goalless draw with Egypt.
What's next?
Buat is expected to return to Barcelos in time for the reception to Sporting, on the 17th matchday of the League, scheduled for 18:45 on Friday. Gil Vicente needs all its players to continue fighting for classification.
