MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) Brazilian striker Alex Terra has signed a multiyear contract with the new Melbourne Heart team in Australia's A-League.

Heart coach John van't Schip said Monday he was impressed by Terra during a recent scouting trip to South America, saying the Brazilian had "great first touch, pace and an eye for goal."
