Rui Pedro da Rocha Fonte (born 23 April 1990) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Braga, on loan from Benfica, as either a forward or right winger. ==Club career== Fonte was born in Penafiel, and joined Sporting CP's youth system at only nine. In 2006 he signed a three-year contract with Arsenal, with a clause stating he was to return to his previous club if the English side did not extend the contract beyond the original period. A regular member of Arsenal's reserves, Fonte made his debut for the first team in a friendly against Barnet in the 2008 pre-season. He made his competitive debut for the Gunners as a substitute for Carlos Vela in a League Cup match against Wigan Athletic on 11 November 2008, a 3–0 home win. On 30 January 2009, Fonte signed for Football League Championship side Crystal Palace on a one-month loan, with his older brother José playing a big role in persuading club and player of each other's merits. He made his club debut in a 0–1 home defeat against Blackpool on the following day, and his loan was subsequently extended until the end of the season; Palace were docked a point and fined £20,000 for fielding him in their final game, despite his loan having expired. On 19 May 2009, it was announced that Arsenal had decided not to extend Fonte's three-year contract, and the player returned to Sporting. He spent the 2009–10 season on loan to Vitória de Setúbal, making his top division debut on 17 August in a 0–0 home draw against Vitória de Guimarães (one minute played), and appearing sparingly during the campaign as the ''Sadinos'' barely escaped relegation. Fonte played 2010–11 on loan to RCD Espanyol, in Spain. He spent the vast majority of his spell with the reserves, his first La Liga appearances consisting of one minute in a 1–0 home win against Sporting de Gijón on 5 December 2010, and ten in a 0–1 home loss against Real Madrid, two months later. On 14 July 2011, Fonte signed permanently for Espanyol, for two years. On 17 January of the following year he scored his first official goal for the ''Pericos'', in a 3–2 home win against CD Mirandés for the season's Copa del Rey – he also netted in the second leg, albeit in a 1–2 and 4–4 aggregate loss; in between he scored his first goal in the league, closing the scoresheet in a 3–0 home success over Granada CF. On 29 January 2013, Fonte terminated his contract with Espanyol and, on the next day, signed with S.L. Benfica on a five-and-a-half-year contract. He was initially assigned to the B-team in the second level, suffering a knee injury in his debut against C.F. União and being sidelined for the rest of the season. In January 2015, Jorge Jesus confirmed that Fonte was promoted to Benfica's first team after the loan of Nélson Oliveira. On 14 January, Fonte debuted for Benfica, playing the first-half of the home win against Arouca (4–0) in the third round of league cup. On 2 February 2015, Fonte, the topscorer in Segunda Liga with 17 goals in 21 matches for Benfica B, was loaned to Belenenses in Primeira Liga, until the end of the season. On 14 February 2015, Fonte scored his first goal in the Primeira Liga. On 30 July 2015, Fonte joined S.C. Braga on loan until the end of the season. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rui Fonte」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
