Tiago Emanuel Embaló Djaló (Portuguese pronunciation: [tiˈaɣu dʒɐˈlɔ]; 9 April 2000) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a central defender for French club Lille OSC.
Club career[]
Sporting CP[]
Djaló was born in Amadora, Lisbon metropolitan area of Bissau-Guinean descent, and he joined Sporting CP's academy in 2013 from Sport Futebol Damaiense.[2] On 24 February 2018, still a junior, he made his professional debut in the LigaPro with their reserves, playing 74 minutes in a 2–2 home draw against Académica de Coimbra.[3]
On 11 April 2018, Djaló scored his first goal in the second division, closing a 1–1 home draw with F.C. Famalicão.[4]
Milan[]
In January 2019, Djaló was signed by A.C. Milan as his contract with Sporting was about to expire.[5] In July, alongside several other youth team players, he was invited to train with the first team by the newly appointed coach Marco Giampaolo.[6] He appeared in his only match for the club in a friendly with Novara Calcio, coming on as a second-half substitute.[7]
Lille[]
Djaló joined Lille OSC on 1 August 2019 for an undisclosed fee, on a five-year deal.[8][9] He made his debut in the French Ligue 1 ten days later, starting in central defence alongside his compatriot José Fonte in the 2–1 home victory over FC Nantes.[10] He first appeared in the UEFA Champions League on 23 October, featuring 87 minutes in a 1–1 draw against Valencia CF in the group stage also at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.[11]
In the 2020–21 season, Djaló contributed 17 games to help his team win the national championship for the first time since 2011.[12]
International career[]
Djaló won 21 caps for Portugal at youth level. His first for the under-21 side occurred on 14 November 2019, in a 0–0 friendly draw against Slovenia held in Estoril.[13][14]
