Sevilla and Brazil national team striker has agreed to be loaned out to a club, the player himself confirmed on Tuesday.
"I will play in Brazil until August 10th and I will be able to return to Seville just in time to start preparing for the new season on the 12th," R. Oliveira told journalists. "I like it here (in Seville) and I would like to play for 'Betis' until the end of my contract in 2011. And then extend it until 2015, if the club would like."
The 25-year-old Brazilian started training on Monday after a five-month break. R. Oliveira suffered a serious knee ligament injury during a UEFA Champions League match against London's "Chelsea" last November.
Since "Betis" removed the Brazilian from the official team lineup during the winter transfer window, R. Oliveira wanted to be loaned out to Brazil, where he could play and try to compete for a place in the Brazil national team, which will begin defending its World Champions title in June.
