Opportunism: He had a keen eye for goal, being opportunistic inside the area.
Finishing: Scored many goals, being runner-up in some competitions, such as in the 1992 Brazilian Championship with Botafogo.
Heading: Despite having health problems that limited this ability later on, he was a good header, according to reports.
Position: Played as a center forward.
In short, Chicão was a classic center forward, with the characteristics of a fighter and finisher, who left his mark as one of the great scorers for clubs like Ponte Preta.

He played on Ponte Preta from 1981 to 1987, scoring 105 goals. The most important striker of the Ponte Preta in the 80's and one of the three largest in its history. Soon in its first year already it was vice-champion of São Paulo. It was a typical center-forward, crisp, good positioning, opportunist, crashing and always present in the area. It was with Socrates the second top scorer of the Paulista Championship of 1983. His stage was so good that he was summoned to compete in the 1984 Olympic Games, winning an honorable silver medal. Another good phase of his career was in Coritiba when he won his only state title in 1989. At Botafogo Carioca he also featured in the 1992 Brasileirão, being the top scorer of the team in the competition.

His Header was something around 89-91.
Maybe his SA could go down to 79 or 80.

I find it hard to believe he deserves such a high head score; he's never been a top scorer in a Brazilian championship, for example. I lowered the odds, but I wouldn't give him more than 84-85.

The header value isn't only about being able to score with the head. It's about being capable of hit the ball with the head with accuracy, whether it's to clear away or to attempt the shot and the player can at least aim the target with a certain consistency.

I know about that, but I believe he didn't have that much potential. I gave those values ​​to Claudiomiro, who was an excellent header of the ball, so I wanted to point that out. And as I said, I wouldn't give him such a high value because he wasn't as good a header of the ball as Claudiomiro, in my opinion, but…updated head…

did he play for Ponte Preta in1987?
74 goals in 92 games during 83-86 is not bad?
