Gonçalo Rosa Gonçalves Pereira Rodrigues (born 18 July 1997), known as Guga, is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Chinese Super League club Beijing Guoan.

Club career

[edit]

Benfica

[edit]

Born in Faro, Algarve, Guga started his career at local club Lusitano in 2005, before joining Benfica's youth system at the age of 11.[2] He made his professional debut with the latter's reserves on 13 August 2016, as a late substitute in a 2–0 away loss against Varzim in the LigaPro.[3]

On 9 January 2019, Guga joined Panetolikos of the Super League Greece on a six-month loan deal with the option for an additional year.[4][5]

Famalicão

[edit]

On 26 June 2019, Guga signed a five-year contract with Famalicão.[6] His Primeira Liga bow took place on 10 August, when he started and finished the 2–0 away win over Santa Clara.[7] He scored his first goal on 14 September, the second of a 4–2 home victory against Paços de Ferreira.[8]

Rio Ave

[edit]

Guga joined Rio Ave on 14 January 2021, on a deal until June 2024.[9] He played 20 matches until the end of the season, in an eventual relegation from the top division.[10]

The following campaign, Guga made 40 appearances and scored three goals in all competitions as the Vila do Conde side returned to the top flight as champions; his strike in the 3–0 defeat of local rivals Varzim on 22 August 2021 was chosen as the club's Goal of the Season.[11] On 5 July 2022, he was named Player of the Season for his efforts.[12]

Guga displayed a series of impressive performances during 2022–23, helping Rio Ave finish comfortably in 12th place. At the end of the season, with just one year left on his contract, he was linked to Portuguese giants Porto.[13]

Beijing Guoan

[edit]

On 1 February 2024, having totalled 115 games during his spell at the Estádio dos Arcos, Guga transferred to Beijing Guoan from the Chinese Super League.[14][15]

International career

[edit]

Guga won 52 caps for Portugal across several youth levels.[16][17]
