Johor Darul Ta’zim signed former Argentina U-17 player

Malaysian club Johor Darul Ta’zim has signed former Independiente B and Argentina U-17 player Brian Ferreira, as well as former Al-Faisaly Harmah player Gonzalo Cabrera, according to reports.

The two Argentine players are expected to replace Pereyra Diaz, who left the club at the end of the previous season, and Hariss Harun, who is going out on loan.

Brian Ferreira is a product of the famed Velez Sarsfield youth system. He played at the club for five seasons before joining Independiente B in early 2016.

He had also represented Argentina at youth level, participating at the 2011 U-17 World Cup for the Albicelestes.
