Eduardo Filipe Quaresma Coimbra Simões (born 2 March 2002) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for C.D. Tondela on loan from Sporting CP.

Club career[]

Born in Barreiro, Setúbal District, Quaresma joined the youth academy of G.D. Fabril at the age of 3 before moving to Sporting CP in 2011.[2] In May 2020, the club rejected a bid of €5 million and Diego Laxalt from A.C. Milan in exchange for his signature.[3] Inter Milan and RB Leipzig were also interested in him, but he agreed to a new contract to tie him to Sporting until 2025, with a €45 million buyout clause and annual salary of €250,000.[4]

Quaresma made his professional debut in a 2–2 Primeira Liga draw away to Vitória S.C. on 4 June 2020, playing the full game.[5][6] In the following season, he contributed two appearances (three overall) as his team won the national championship for the first time in 19 years.[7][8]

On 23 July 2021, Quaresma was loaned to C.D. Tondela for one year without a buying option.[9]

International career[]

Quaresma earned his first cap for Portugal at under-21 level on 6 September 2021, in a 1–0 victory over Belarus in the 2023 UEFA European Championship qualifiers held in Amadora.[10]

Personal life[]

Quaresma is a distant relative of Brazilian international Zico.[11]
