Flávio Miguel Magalhães Sousa Meireles (born 3 October 1976) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a defensive midfielder. Most of his 16-year professional career was associated with Vitória de Guimarães, which he represented in three different spells, appearing in nearly 250 official games. ==Football career== Born in Ribeira de Pena, Vila Real, Meireles began his professional career with Vitória de Guimarães, having no impact whatsoever at the club in his first spell and moving to the lower leagues in 1996, first with Moreirense FC (where he also appeared very rarely, in the second division) then A.D. Fafe. In 1999 he returned to Vitória, meeting the same fate, and quickly moved again to Fafe. The following season he switched to another former club, Moreirense, being instrumental as the club – also based in Guimarães – promoted from the third to the top level in only two years, under manager Manuel Machado. For the 2003–04 campaign Meireles re-joined Vitória de Guimarães, for a third spell: his first game came on 18 August 2003, playing the entire 1–0 home win over União de Leiria. At the Minho side, he was now an automatic first-choice and team captain from the start, helping it achieve promotion in 2007 and qualifying to the UEFA Champions League in the following season, with the player appearing in all but two games and scoring three goals; in two different stints with the club, he was again coached by Machado. On 22 May 2011, after appearing in the Portuguese Cup final against F.C. Porto, 34-year-old Meireles announced his immediate retirement from football. Shortly after, he was appointed as a coach at the club. In May 2012, still with Vitória, Meireles was appointed new director of football. 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「Flávio Meireles」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
