The dream of my life resume if the phrase: want to be professional footballer. All the choices I made in my life were in that direction with this objective. Always fought hence, I have always done everything for this dream

My short career began in Lousã, a village 10 kms of Miranda do Corvo, my place where I was born and grew up. 

 
I passed by the U. Coimbra where I had the 1 st disgust as athlete, a boy of 11 years heard that has quality and that does not serve is not easy, isn't it? But so, and with the strength mainly from my father, companion of all the struggles and travel, forward and not follow desisti. I remember have thought while watching the training of senior team of the Union - "if one day will regret!"
 
I went to the Mirandense where we did a season unforgettable. Here I started believing more in my dream. Quickly i went for Academica, fantastic 4 years that culminated in a major final year of Junior 2 of where I was the best scorer in the National Junior Championship with 22 goals in 29 games. Unforgettable! But here also came under 2 large setback of my career. I was considered expendable by the Academica. It was a sad farewell after all what I did, but football is well and whoever floor here also have to learn to deal with this. I accepted, but not understood.
 
I went to the Pampilhosa and in December for the Mirandense. In Pampilhosa quite simply did not want to bet on a boy of 19 years. I went back to the Mirandense. Was very good, and I opened the door for many clubs. I showed only a part of my qualities and what could do.
 
Then came the great turning point of my life, the Zwolle. I had a fantastic season and two unforgettable moments but not unrepeatable: Goal to Feyenoord in Satidum of Rotterdam for 40000 people and the call to U-21 in Portugal, a dream of a life.
 
Finally, I have to explain why this site. I don't have a long career, full of titles, glories and achievements. But on my 20 years I had a unique opportunity to give back to my life and enjoyed it. It is this message that I want to go for all, especially for the younger ones who have confidence in themselves. At some time in our life is a chance and it depends on each one of us seize it or not. Always say that this was my only merit in my story, the rest was happening.
 
I leave a few more stories this year and passed to the Diary in this website.
