Career Edit

A forward in his early career, Gonçalves established himself as a midfielder soon after, playing alongside Cândido de Oliveira and António Ribeiro dos Reis. A Casa Pia student like many other Benfica players at the time, he gained more recognition after Cândido de Oliveira left the club in 1920 to start a new one, Casa Pia A.C.[2]

Gonçalves first represented Portugal on 18 December 1921, in Madrid, against Spain, in a 3–1 loss, and then again in Lisbon, against the same opponent, in a 2–1 loss. In the latter match, he led the captain armband.[2]

He coached Benfica from 1934 to 1936, winning the Campeonato de Portugal in his first season and the championship in the second one.[3]

Personal life Edit

His son, Vasco Gonçalves, was an army officer in the Engineering Corps who took part in the Carnation Revolution and later served as the 104th Prime Minister of Portugal.[2]
