Ex-Benfica star snapped up by League One club Clyde

Former Benfica academy midfielder Monday Samuel has signed a short-term deal at League One club Clyde until the end of this season.

The 28-year-old was born in Nigeria but holds Swedish citizenship, having played most of his career there.

Samuel was with Benfica's academy before moving to Sweden in 2012, and has spent time with Angelholms FF, Ostersunds FK, and was signed by ex-Celtic hero Henrik Larsson for Helsingborgs IF.

A spell in Vietnam followed, before Samuel returned to Sweden, where he was most recently with IFK Malmo.

Clyde have received international clearance for the midfielder, who goes into the squad for tomorrow's League One clash at Queen's Park.
