António Henriques Fonseca de Jesus Oliveira (born 8 June 1958) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a sweeper.

Club career

Oliveira made his top division debuts at already 24, with C.S. Marítimo, after several seasons in the second level with G.D. Fabril (under two different denominations). Even though the Madeira side was relegated from the top flight at the end of the 1982–83 campaign, he was immediately bought by national powerhouse S.L. Benfica.

With the Reds Oliveira started in two out of his four seasons, helping the club to two leagues and three domestic cups after which he returned to Marítimo, where he would play until 1990.

Oliveira then moved to another club in the top flight, Aveiro's S.C. Beira-Mar, and retired at the end of the 1993–94 season at the age of 36 having amassed top level totals of 352 games and 14 goals.

International career

Oliveira gained nine caps for Portugal, his debut coming on 8 June 1983 – the day of his 25th birthday – in a 0–4 friendly loss to Brazil in Coimbra.

He was a member of the team that competed in the 1986 FIFA World Cup in Mexico, being an unused substitute as the national side exited in the group stage. Oliveira's last match was played on 26 March 1989 in a 3–1 win against Switzerland in Lisbon, for the 1990 World Cup qualifiers.[1]
