His previous records indicate 8 goals converted last season in the Boavista of Portugal in his European landing, had added 11 in his first two years of MLS with the Houston dynamo in 2016 and 2017, while his last year in the Olympia of his country (2015/16) had achieved 21 victories in 39 games played.
