Career with Bari
He joined Bari in 1989, and formed a formitable striking partnership with Pietro Maiellaro and later with Romanian Florin Raducioiu. After scoring six goals in 33 Serie A matches in the 1989–1990 season, he would score 12 times in the 1990–1991 season, the most memorable of which was a double against A.C. Milan on the penultimate round of the season, thus sealing the title for another club, Sampdoria, which won its first ever (and so far the only) Serie A title in that club's history.
He started the following season brightly and was on his usually excellent form. But in their third match at home to Sampdoria, in torrential rain, his leg was broken by defender Marco Lanna in a tackle along the sidelines which ended his season. It took him an entire year to recover and he stayed on with Bari after its relegation to Serie B for two more seasons until 1994.
National team
He has also played for the Brazil national team, scoring twice (one goal apiece against Uruguay, and in the notorious match against Argentina) in the Copa America in 1991.
He also competed for Brazil at the 1988 Summer Olympics.[1]
