Carlos Amadeu Nascimento Lemos (6 September 1965 – 15 November 2020) was a Brazilian footballer and coach who played as a left back. He represented Bahia as a player before injury curtailed his career. He went on to have a coaching career which spanned almost thirty years.
Playing career
[edit]Born in Salvador, Bahia, Amadeu joined Bahia's youth setup in 1983. He was definitely promoted to the main squad in 1985, after already being a part of the team who won the Campeonato Baiano in the previous year.[1]
In 1987, after two seasons as a senior, Amadeu moved to Galícia. After impressing during his spell at the side, he returned to Bahia and was a part of the 1988 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A squad which lifted the trophy. In October 1988, however, he suffered a compound fracture in his arm which led to three surgeries, and after a year without playing, he retired.[1]
Coaching career
[edit]Amadeu started his coaching career at Vitória in 1991, as a fitness coach of the under-20s. He subsequently coached the under-17 and under-20 squads in the following years, but in 1996 left to work in futsal.[1]
Amadeu returned to Bahia in 2000, being in charge of the youth squads until early 2005, when he became Hélio dos Anjos' assistant coach of the main squad.[2] On 18 April of that year, after dos Anjos was dismissed, he took over the first team in an interim manner;[3] he also took the role in two more occasions, after the departures of Jair Picerni[4] and Procópio Cardoso.[5]
In 2009 Amadeu returned to Vitória, being in charge of the under-20s. In May 2014, he was the interim coach of the first team for one match,[6] and in December of that year, he became an assistant of the main squad. In May 2015, he was appointed head coach of the Brazil national under-17 team.[7]
On 24 January 2018, after winning the 2017 South American U-17 Championship, Amadeu was confirmed as head coach of the under-20 national team.[8] On 22 February of the following year, he left the post, following Brazil's poor performance in the 2019 South American U-20 Championship which saw them finish fifth and miss out on qualification for the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[9][10][11]
On 5 August 2019, Amadeu rejoined Vitória for a third spell, now appointed first team coach.[12] On 18 September, after only nine matches in charge, he was sacked,[13] and returned to his first club Bahia the following 6 February, being named head coach of the under-20s.[14] In August 2020 Amadeu moved to Saudi Arabia to manage Al Hilal's under-19 team.[15]
Personal life
[edit]Amadeu was married to Dora and had two sons Mateus and Ricardo. Ricardo, the elder, is the under-15 coach and under-20 assistant coach at Vitória.[16] In 2012 Amadeu developed difficulties in hearing in one ear and by 2020 had lost hearing in that ear and had only 30% hearing in the other, relying on a hearing aid.[11][16]
Death
[edit]On 15 November 2020, Amadeu was found dead in Riyadh after having a heart attack.[17]
