GUANGZHOU, July 9 (Xinhua) -- Elkeson de Oliveira Cardoso will return to the team soon after a medical check-up, said Chinese Super League (CSL) outfit Guangzhou Evergrande here on Tuesday.
The 30-year-old Brazilian forward, who joined Evergrande at the end of 2012, had played 111 matches during the 2013-15 seasons, scoring 77 goals.
