Portuguese goalkeeper Quim has signed a contract with Sporting Clube de Braga on a free transfer until June 2013.
Quim's career started in Braga in 1994. He played in the club for 10 years before transferring to Benfica. His contract was due to expire this summer. Águias chose not to extend it.
He earned 144 caps during his 6 years of career in Benfica. In 2009/2010 the club won the Portuguese League with 76 points and also Taça da Liga second time in the row. Braga finished second with 71 points.
A constant deputy for Ricardo during Scolariada times, he spent years waiting till finally he become no. 1 in Selecção's goal when Carlos Queiroz became the coach. However, he lost his spot in 2008 and Eduardo became the no. 1. He was not called-up for the World Cup squad.
Moments of glory? Taça da Liga 2008/2009 finale Sporting Lisboa - Benfica. After 1-1 draw eventually it came to the penalty shoot-out. Quim defended three and became man of the match.
Good luck in Braga, Quim.
