Portuguese attacker Bebe has been named in the Cordoba squad for Monday's La Liga clash against Rayo Vallecano in the Spanish capital.

The 24-year-old was thrust into the spotlight in 2010 when he joined Manchester United from Portuguese side Vitoria de Guimaraes.

The forward struggled to make his mark at Old Trafford, however, and eventually joined Benfica last summer following three separate loan spells.

Bebe struggled for football in the first half of the season, however, which led to Cordoba securing his services on loan until the end of the campaign.

Cordoba boss Miroslav Djukic has selected the pacey forward in his travelling party, in addition to Brazilian defender Edimar, who recently joined on loan from Chievo.
