Gilson Pires da Silva (born 27 September 1967), better known as Gilson Batata, is a Brazilian former professional footballer and manager, who played as a forward. He is known in Brazilian football as "O Andarilho da Bola" (English: The Football Wanderer), due to the huge number of clubs he played for over the years.[1]
Career[edit]
Gilson Batata began his career in the youth sectors of União Barbarense, in 1982.[2] His first professional contract was with GE Catanduvense, a club he played for in 1986 and 1987, and in 1988, at Atlético Goianiense, he was state champion for the first time. He had a brief spell at Goiás and in 1990, he ended up being traded to Atlético Madrid, becoming part of the club's B team.[3] Unsuccessful in Spain, he returned to Atlético Goianiense, where he was again champion, this time of Brasileiro Serie C in 1990.[4]
Gilson passed through Rio Branco, Bahia and Sãocarlense, until arriving in Paraná in 1994, where he was part of the state champion squad that year.[5] He moved to countless other clubs until returning to his formative club, União Barbarense, in 1998, where he was champion and top scorer in the Série A2.[2] In 2000, he was again champion of the Campeoanto Paranaense, this time with Atlético Paranaense, a team for which he also played in the Copa Libertadores that season.[6][7] In 2001 he competed in the Campeonato Paulista for Matonense, and the Campeonato Brasileiro for Sport Recife.[8] In September of that year, he was signed by Figueirense FC.[9]
Only conquered a cup again in the 2003 season, this time with Uberaba SC, in Módulo II of Minas Gerais,[10] club for which he ended his career for the first time in 2008, when he definitively became a manager. In 2011, he played at the age of 43 for CAP Uberlândia, a club that Gilson helped to establish.[11]
Managerial career[edit]
Gilson began his coaching career in 2006 at União Barbarense as a caretaker for one match.[2] He returned to the club in 2008, a season in which he also led SE Itapirense in the Copa Paulista.[1]
Afterwards, he only coached clubs in Minas Gerais, starting with CAP Uberlândia, a team he helped found, and Ituiutabana,[12][13] Atlético Tricordiano,[14] Uberaba[15][16] and Democrat-SL.[17] He did not win titles as a coach.
