Club career

edit

Portugal

edit

Born in Porto, Monteiro played youth football with local Porto, having joined its youth system at the age of 8. Until his release on 30 June 2010, he was consecutively loaned to Ribeirão, Estrela da Amadora, S.C. Covilhã (twice) and Portimonense.[2]

Monteiro's Primeira Liga input during this timeframe consisted of 13 minutes with the second club, in a 1–0 away loss against Vitória de Setúbal on 31 August 2008.[3][4]

Cyprus

edit

In summer 2011, after one season in his country's Segunda Liga with Santa Clara, Monteiro signed with AEL Limassol from the Cypriot First Division. In his first year, he contributed two goals in 26 games to help his team win the national championship after a 44-year wait.[5]

Monteiro scored a career-best 18 goals in the 2013–14 campaign, topping the goal charts as the side ranked second after eventual winners APOEL.[6] During his three-year tenure, he netted 26 times from 105 appearances in all competitions, and also reached the final of the domestic cup twice.

Later years

edit

Monteiro returned to his country and its top flight for 2014–15, joining Moreirense on a two-year contract.[7] In January 2015, however, he moved back to Cyprus' with AEK Larnaca, going on to score ten official goals over a 12-month period.

International career

edit

All youth categories comprised, Monteiro won 30 caps for Portugal and scored five goals. His debut with the under-21s occurred on 11 July 2009, in a 0–1 defeat to Cape Verde for the Lusofonia Games.
