Signs with Almeria Viera finalized an 18-month contract with Almeria on Wednesday.

Impact Viera was released by Las Palmas when the January transfer window opened and has now found a new home while staying in La Liga. With his former club, the attacking midfielder started seven of his nine appearances, recording two goals on 14 shots (six on target), one assist, 16 crosses (four accurate) and 15 corners, before sitting out the last two months in order to force a move away from the club.

Out again Viera (personal) is out for Friday's match against Getafe.

Impact Viera is still out, as he is yet to return to the club after leaving suddenly for the Middle East. It seems as if the attacker's time with the club is up, as they are no longer in good relations, and the player seems to want to start heading in a different path. There is a decent chance that he will no longer be with Las Palmas by the end of the winter transfer period.

Training without issue Viera (undisclosed) took part in training Friday and will travel for Sunday's trip to Villarreal, according to manager Garcia Pimienta.

Impact Viera was limited to just 27 minutes off the bench during a 2-1 win over Celta Vigo, but came off the bench to provide a goal and assist to spark the comeback. The midfielder would be a major loss if he suffers any sort of setback and is unable to get on the pitch for Sunday's trip, though a full training sessions is a good sign. If Viera is fully fit he would likely be the first name on the team sheet in attacking midfield.
