Mickaël Tavares

Mickaël Tavares was a midfielder formerly of Fulham, usually in a holding central role. He was signed on a free transfer in October 2012 as a backup player and made no appearances for the club during his short tenure.

Fulham (2012-2013)
On 5th October 2012, Mikaël was signed on a free transfer as he was a free agent after being released by Hamburg earlier in the summer. He was signed as a backup to the first team at a time where central midfielders were fairly sparse at the club due to many outgoing transfers in the months previous. He made his first appearance in a Fulham shirt later the same day as his transfer, playing the full 90 minutes in an U21 match at Craven Cottage in a 3-1 victory over Chelsea U21. Making a further 3 appearances for the Under-21 squad, Mickaël was released after only 3 months at the club having signed a month-by-month contract, and was deemed surplus to requirements in early January 2013.

The closest that Mickaël came to making an appearance in the first team was as an unused substitute on 22nd December away to Liverpool in a 4-0 loss.

After Fulham
In August 2013, he signed for Martin Jol's former club RKC Waalwijk on recommendation to them after several months as a free agent.
