MANCHESTER United full-back Fabio da Silva has joined Queens Park Rangers on loan for the 2012-13 campaign
The 21-year-old defender has made an impact at Old Trafford despite his tender age, making over 50 appearances for the Premier League runners up.
He can feature in either full-back position and has often been joined in the other full-back berth by twin brother Rafael da Silva.
Despite missing out on the Brazilian squad for the Olympic Games, Fabio can now look forward to the prospect of vying with a host of defenders for a full-back spot.
This could of course signal the untimely end of Luke Young, a man today rumoured to be on his way to Premier League new-boys, Reading.
