Baltazar Maria de Morais Júnior (born 17 July 1959), simply known as Baltazar, is a Brazilian retired footballer who played as a striker. During an 18-year professional career he played, other than in his country, in Spain, Portugal, France and Japan, winning several individual scoring honours. He appeared with the Brazilian national team at the 1989 Copa América. ==Club career== Born in Goiânia, Goiás, Baltazar started playing with hometown club Atlético Clube Goianiense. In 1979 he signed for Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense, going on to score in double digits during his entire four-season spell (a best of 14 in 1980) while being an instrumental offensive unit in the club's back-to-back Rio Grande do Sul State League conquests; in the 1981's Brazilian League final against São Paulo FC, after missing a penalty kick in the first leg (2–1 home win), he scored the only goal in the second game, for the club's first-ever national championship. In the following four years Baltazar played for Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras (two spells), Clube de Regatas do Flamengo and Botafogo, netting 13 goals for the second club in another Brazilian championship conquest. Aged 26 he had his first abroad experience, being relegated from the Spanish La Liga with Celta de Vigo. In 1986–87 Baltazar propelled the Galician club back into the top level, scoring a career-best 34 goals, also a best-ever in the second division. He only found the net six times in the following season, but the club retained its division status.〔(Baltazar ); Yo Jugué en el Celta, 3 April 2008 〕 Subsequently Baltazar stayed in the country and joined Atlético Madrid, scoring 35 goals in 36 contests in his first season – his second Pichichi in three years – before adding 18 more goals the following season. However, after the emergence of younger Manolo, the 31-year-old was deemed surplus to requirements by manager Tomislav Ivić and, in November 1990, signed for F.C. Porto in Portugal, being used almost exclusively as a substitute during his only season. Until his retirement at the age of 37 in 1996, Baltazar played for Stade Rennais FC (France), Goiás Esporte Clube and Kyoto Purple Sanga (Japan). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baltazar Maria de Morais Júnior」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
