João Vasco Lima Santos de Miranda (born 26 December 1994), known as João Vasco, is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Lusitânia.[2]

Club career

[edit]

Born in the village of Darque in Viana do Castelo, João Vasco played lower league and amateur football until the age of 22.[3] On 14 June 2017 he moved straight to the Primeira Liga by signing a three-year contract with C.D. Tondela,[4] making his professional debut on 30 July of that year when he came on as a 74th-minute substitute in a 1–0 away loss against Vitória F.C. in the Taça da Liga.[5]

João Vasco was loaned to Segunda Liga club Gil Vicente F.C. on 3 January 2018, until the end of the season.[6] He scored once on 18 March, the winner as they came from behind to triumph 2–1 at S.L. Benfica B, as the side from Barcelos were eventually relegated.[7]

In July 2018, in another loan, João Vasco joined Sport Benfica e Castelo Branco of the third division.[8] During the campaign, he scored 14 times in 35 games in all competitions.[9]

Having cut ties with Tondela, João Vasco signed a one-year deal with third-tier S.C. Olhanense on 14 August 2019.[9] He returned to division two one year later, agreeing to a two-year contract at Académico de Viseu FC.[10]

Personal life

[edit]

In March 2018, João Vasco earned a master's degree from the University of Coimbra in the field of training youths in sport, having written his thesis on football and bone health.[7]
