Wálter Vasconcelos Fernandes (25 March 1930 – 22 January 1983), simply known as Vasconcelos, was a Brazilian professional footballer who played as a forward.
Born in Belo Horizonte, Vasoncelos began his professional career at Vasco da Gama, being part of the champion team at the end of the 40s. He arrived at Santos in 1953 and stood out there with 111 goals in 175 appearances, being the team's greatest striker until his arrival of Pelé.[1] His career changed, however, on 9 December 1956, after breaking his leg in an accidental throw. He was unable to repeat his great level of performance. He also played for São Paulo, Jabaquara, Náutico and Apucarana.[2] He became an alcoholic and died as a result of his addiction at the age of 52.[3][4]
