Brazilian striker Jo to join Japan's Nagoya Grampus
Former Manchester City and Jiangsu Suning striker Jo has agreed to join Japanese football club Nagoya Grampus from Corinthians, the Brazilian media reported.
Jo will undergo a medical in Sao Paulo after Corinthians agreed to a 11 million euro transfer fee ($13.04 million), according to the Folha de S.Paulo newspaper on Friday.
The 30-year-old Brazilian, who joined Corinthians from Jiangsu Suning in November 2016, enjoyed a prolific 2017 with 25 goals across all competitions, reports Xinhua news agency.
Earlier this month he won the Bola de Ouro, awarded to the best player in Brazil's Serie A championship.
Nagoya Grampus earned promotion to Japan's top division this year by finishing third in the J2 league.
