Estoril Praia HubEstoril Praia has a young talent who wants to shine: Peixinho. With only 22 years old, the winger has already shown his potential last season.
Who is Peixinho?
Peixinho is a young winger who played for Sousense and Gondomar before joining Gil Vicente in the 2023/2024 season. He made his debut in the top division of Portuguese football and was a substitute in a game against UD Oliveirense, for the Allianz Cup.
What happened at Estoril Praia?
Peixinho joined Estoril Praia and started playing for the under-23 team. But it didn't take long for him to establish himself in the first team. Ian Cathro, who has since left the club, promoted him to the main squad and Peixinho took the opportunity, playing 12 games (11 in the League and one in the Portuguese Cup).
What is Peixinho's goal?
Peixinho wants to continue growing and promises to stop only when he becomes a 'shark'. He finished the last campaign in great form, scoring a great goal against Benfica (1-3), in the 34th and final round of the League.

What's next?
The coach who will be hired to replace Ian Cathro can count on Peixinho. And beyond the immediate competitive context, a possible future sale of the talented winger could also mean a big profit for Estoril Praia's SAD. Currently, Estoril Praia is in 10th place in the Primeira Liga, with 39 points, 10 wins, 9 draws and 15 losses in 34 games, and a goal difference of -3.
