French champions Lille have signed
Costa Rica under-20 striker John Jairo Ruiz on a four-and-a-half-year deal, the Ligue 1 team said on Friday.
The 18-year-old Ruiz, who scored three goals at the Under-20
World Cup in Colombia last year, joins from Costa Rica club
Deportivo Saprissa.
Lille also signed French striker Nolan Roux from Stade Brest
earlier this week amid media speculation that Moussa Sow, who is
at the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal, is about to leave for
Fenerbahce of Turkey.
