Shakhtar Donetsk

On June 26, 2013 Fred signed for Ukrainian league club Shakhtar Donetsk in a deal worth €15M.[2] He scored 2 goals in the first official game for Shakhtar at the Ukrainian Super Cup in 2013, helping them win 3–1.[3] During the Ukrainian crisis, Fred was amongst six Shakhtar Donetsk players who refused to return to Donetsk in July 2014 following a pre-season friendly against Olympique Lyonnais in France.[4]
