  Wuhan Zall had a rough season last year. The head coach was out of class. The coach was empty and almost relegated... One major cause of these problems was the frequent injuries in the foreign aid camp.

  Rafael, who had been injured since August, missed most of the season. When Zall was stuck in the quagmire, he really had more than enough energy.

However, this does not affect the mutual recognition between Zall and him.

Returning from injury, the two sides reached a renewal agreement as they wished.

Wuhan Zall said in the announcement that the club recently completed the contract extension with Brazilian player Rafael Silva.

  Since joining Zall in 2018, Rafael has played 38 times in various competitions and scored 31 goals. He has made great achievements for the team to win the championship in the 2018 Chinese Premier League and sixth place in the 2019 Chinese Super League. His shooting skills and his kind and introverted personality made him quite popular among Jiangcheng fans, and his iconic "saluting" celebration also impressed everyone.

The iconic celebration after Rafael scored.

  On August 4, 2020, Rafael accidentally injured his left knee during training before the match against Shijiazhuang Yongchang. After an MRI examination and a diagnosis by the medical team, after the club sought his own opinions, Rafael returned to Brazil positively. For treatment and rehabilitation.

  Fans expressed their blessings and disappointment to Rafael. He also stated that he would recover as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible to fight side by side with the team and fans. At the same time, he also cheered for Wuhan.
