After playing two years with Porto, he went on to represent Deportivo de La Coruña (169 official appearances in five seasons) and Juventus, appearing rarely for the latter club due to injury.[3][4]

Andrade earned more than 50 caps for Portugal, representing the country at the 2002 World Cup and Euro 2004 and helping it finish second in the latter tournament.

Club career

edit

Early career

edit

Andrade was born in Lisbon.[5] He made his professional debut with his hometown club C.F. Estrela da Amadora in 1997, helping it to two consecutive eighth Primeira Liga places as well as participation in the 1998 UEFA Intertoto Cup.[6] He immediately caught the eye, and after that was on the move north to FC Porto,[7][8] being the team's most used player in the 2001–02 edition of the UEFA Champions League at 15 matches (of a possible 16) as they reached the second group phase in the competition.[9][10]

Deportivo

edit

After Portugal's unsuccessful 2002 World Cup campaign, Andrade joined Spain's Deportivo de La Coruña in a move that cost the Galician side 12 million with the possibility of being increased to €13 million (goalkeeper Nuno Espírito Santo was also part of the deal, for €3 million).[11][12] He appeared in 11 La Liga games in his debut season, barred by César Martín and Noureddine Naybet, but was an undisputed first-choice when healthy in the following years.[13]

On 21 April 2004, during a Champions League semi-finals fixture against his former team Porto, Andrade was sent off by Markus Merk for a kick on Deco; the gesture was of a friendly nature, but the referee was eluded by it, and immediately gave the defender his marching orders.[14][15][16] He was forced to serve a one-match ban.[17]

Juventus

edit

Andrade signed for Juventus FC in summer 2007, for approximately €10 million.[18] In a Serie A match against AS Roma on 23 September, he broke his left patella and missed the rest of the season.[19]

In the team's 2008 pre-season, Andrade suffered the same injury[20] and missed the entire 2008–09. In a press release dated 7 August, Juventus stated:

"On 9 July 2008, during a training session at Pinzolo, the player Jorge Manuel Almeida Gomes de Andrade was the victim of another serious injury to his left knee (relapse of the fracture of the rotula) operated twice in the past season. A new osteosynthesis operation was thus needed, with the post-surgery prognosis being a number of months. Given the impossibility for the player to recover to play professionally, the company has proceeded to fully write down the residual book value of the player's registration rights with a negative effect on the 2007–08 financial year for €6.8 million."[21]

That was the third in a year and the fourth left knee surgery Andrade had in his career. The Turin-based club wrote off his salary as well as part of the transfer fee for the fiscal year, though he stated he hoped to return playing at the highest level.

On 8 April 2009, Juventus and Andrade reached an agreement and the player's remaining contract was cancelled, leaving him free to find another team.[22][23] After being released he went on trial with Málaga CF, but was not offered a deal eventually;[24] in early February 2010, he was scheduled to undergo a trial at Toronto FC in Canada, but failed to report.[25]

International career

edit

Andrade made his debut for Portugal on 25 April 2001, playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–0 friendly defeat in France,[26][7] and was part of the nation's squads at the 2002 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2004, partnering Ricardo Carvalho for the runners-up at the latter[27][28] and eventually scoring three goals in 51 games,[8] the first being in a 5–1 win against Angola on 14 November 2001, an exhibition game marred by violence.[29] In Euro 2004, held on home soil, he also put one in his own net in a 2–1 victory over the Netherlands in the semi-finals.[30]

Andrade missed Portugal's fourth-place finish at the 2006 FIFA World Cup, having had knee surgery in March that year.[31] He appeared in five matches during the Euro 2008 qualifying campaign, his last international occurring on 22 August when he started in a 1–1 draw in Armenia.[32]

Coaching career

edit

On 9 April 2015, Andrade was named assistant to Pedro Hipólito at hometown club Atlético Clube de Portugal, then struggling in the Segunda Liga.[33] The following 21 February, he was interim manager for the match away to FC Porto B, losing by a single goal.[34]

Andrade took his first outright job on 21 March 2016 at fellow capital team Clube Oriental de Lisboa, occupying a precarious position in the same league.[35] In May, four of his players were investigated for allegedly taking bribes to throw games,[36] and the campaign ended with relegation.[37]

In February 2019, Andrade was appointed assistant to Sandro Mendes at Vitória de Setúbal.[38] He stood down in August, for family reasons.[39]

Andrade returned to Estrela on 4 December 2021, as part of the club's football structure.[8]

Personal life

edit

Andrade, along with fellow Portuguese internationals Miguel, Nani and Nélson, had descent from the Cape Verde islands, previously a Portuguese colony. He visited the archipelago in 2006, and did some work with grassroots football during his stay.[40]
