Miguel Monteiro

Club career

Miguel started his career with C.F. Estrela da Amadora as a winger, then moved to S.L. Benfica, making the transition to right midfielder and then right back (by the hand of former Benfica player Fernando Chalana, in his only game as a transition coach) - the position that ultimately brought him worldwide recognition.

Miguel joined Valencia CF in August 2005 for a €7.5 million fee. Fully established as first-choice, he signed a new five-year contract with the team in September 2007.
International career

A Portuguese international since making his debut against Italy on 12 February 2003, Miguel played for his country squad in UEFA Euro 2004, where Portugal were defeated in the final by Greece, and at the 2006 FIFA World Cup.

In Euro 2008, he backed up José Bosingwa, and only appeared in the group stage 2–0 loss against hosts Switzerland.
