Francisco 'Chico' Oliveira Geraldes (born 18 April 1995) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Segunda División club Eldense, on loan from Malaysia Super League club Johor Darul Ta'zim.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Lisbon, Geraldes joined local Sporting CP's youth system in 2003, aged 8. On 30 March 2013, whilst still a junior, he made his professional debut with their reserves, playing one minute in a 3–1 home loss against Benfica B in the Segunda Liga.[2]

Geraldes spent the first part of the 2016–17 season on loan to Primeira Liga team Moreirense,[3] his maiden appearance in the competition taking place on 13 August 2016 in a 1–1 home draw with Paços de Ferreira.[4] His first goal came the following weekend, when he helped the visitors defeat Feirense 3–0 also as a starter.[5]

In late January 2017, both Geraldes and Daniel Podence were recalled from their loans by Sporting manager Jorge Jesus.[6] He made his competitive debut for his parent club on 11 March, coming on as a late substitute in the 4–1 away win over Tondela.[7]

For 2017–18, still owned by Sporting, Geraldes signed with Rio Ave.[8] The following campaign, in the same situation, he joined Germany's Eintracht Frankfurt.[9]

Geraldes was loaned to AEK Athens on 24 June 2019, with no purchase option included in the deal.[10] On 21 August 2020, he returned to Rio Ave on a permanent three-year contract.[11] On 1 October, he equalised an eventual 2–2 home draw against AC Milan, and also converted his attempt in the penalty shoot-out loss in the play-off round of the UEFA Europa League.[12]

On 30 July 2021, after 38 official appearances at the Estádio dos Arcos (one goal), Geraldes signed a two-year deal with newly promoted Estoril.[13] In August 2023, after it expired, he joined Baniyas in the UAE Pro League on a contract of the same duration.[14]

On 6 January 2024, Geraldes left the latter by mutual agreement.[15] He moved to Johor Darul Ta'zim from the Malaysia Super League one week later.[16] He scored four times in the year's FA Cup in six games, as his side won the tournament.[17][18][19][20]

On 30 August 2024, Geraldes joined Spanish Segunda División side Eldense on a one-year loan.[21]

International career

[edit]

Geraldes won two caps for Portugal at under-21 level. His first was on 6 October 2016, in a 3–3 draw in Hungary in the 2017 UEFA European Championship qualifiers where he provided an assist to Podence.[22] The following month, he featured in the 3–1 friendly win against the Czech Republic in Setúbal.[23]

Personal life

[edit]

An avid reader, Geraldes listed George Orwell as his favourite author.[24][25]
