Jorge Luís dos Santos Dias, known as Jorge Luís (born 11 February 1976), is a retired Brazilian footballer who played as a left defender.
Club career
Born in Nova Iguaçu, Rio de Janeiro, Jorge Luís started his career at local Fluminense Football Club, playing with the team through consecutive relegations to the Série B and Série C. In 2001, he left for Santa Cruz Futebol Clube in the Série A, in a relegation-ending season.
In August 2002, Luís left for Portugal and signed for Varzim SC,[1] suffering yet another relegation. The following year, he stayed in the north of the country, joining fellow Primeira Liga outfit Sporting de Braga.[2]
During his 2½ season-spell in Minho, Jorge Luís was a regular starter, as the team achieved two fifth positions and one fourth, with the subsequent UEFA Cup qualifications. In January 2006, he moved to FC Dynamo Moscow in Russia for €3 million and Nuno Frechaut,[3] as the club signed several Portuguese or Portugal-based players in that timeframe (Danny, Derlei, Maniche, etc). After just six Premier League games, however, he returned to his previous club, on loan.[4]
In July 2007, Luís returned to his country and joined for Sport Club Internacional, signing a one-year contract.[5] In May of the following year, he moved to Porto Alegre Futebol Clube in the Rio Grande do Sul State League (second division); in August he moved teams again, signing with Clube de Regatas Brasil, and leaving after only one second level game played.[6]
In late October 2009, after one year without a club, 33-year old Luís returned to Portugal and joined C.D. Trofense in the Liga de Honra.[7] He retired at the end of the season, aged 34.
