Brazilian football club Vasco da Gama have signed former Bayern Munich midfielder Julio dos Santos in a three-year deal.

The 31-year-old Paraguay international joins the Rio de Janeiro outfit from Cerro Porteno, where he had spent the past five seasons, reports Xinhua.

Santos has been capped 31 times by Paraguay and was a member of his national team's 2006 World Cup campaign in Germany.

Four-time Brazilian champions Vasco secured their return to Brazil's top flight earlier this month by finishing third in the Serie B.
