From a young age, his heart beat to the rhythm of the plays, and his dream was to wear the jersey of Izildo's powerful team.
Even without cleats, with his bare feet on the ground, he trained tirelessly, fueling his determination and
dedication.
Her effort knew no limits, and Xota, with her unshakable confidence, knew she would achieve her goal.
And he achieved it. He joined the mythical team of his heart, swearing loyalty to Morabeza.
Charismatic and inspiring, he became a reference for generations of football players, coaches and fans, all admiring his dedication and reality.
Xota demonstrated a truly unconditional love for his club, refusing offers from other teams, facing difficulties to keep the flame of his beloved Morabeza alive.
Today, at 60 years old, many of them dedicated to football and his club, he deserves the deepest respect.
His life is a testament to what it means to be true to your dreams and your love of sport.
It is for everything he did for Brava football that Desporto Brava gives Xota the honorific title of Husband, recognizing his exemplary commitment and dedication.
May his legacy inspire even more generations to follow in his footsteps, showing that true love for sport goes beyond victories and defeats, it is a journey of sacrifice, passion and commitment.
Desporto Brava bringing you the best of sport.
