Feliciano Alves Diniz Filho (born 6 December 1956), simply known as Alves, is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a right back.

Career

[edit]

A strong-willed full-back, Alves was two-time champion of the Copa SP de Juniores with Atlético Mineiro. He was promoted to the main team by Telê Santana, and played 210 matches for the club, scoring 19 goals.[1] He later played for Portuguesa, where he made 140 appearances, but there he became involved in controversy when he was barred by the club's president, Osvaldo Teixeira Duarte, from participating in the 1984 Summer Olympics.[2] He transferred to Internacional in the same year, and was champion of Rio Grande do Sul. He still played for São José and Francana, until arriving at Náutico, where he was runner-up in Série B in 1988. After an episode of violence where his house was robbed in Recife, he ended his career with Aimoré, in São Leopoldo.[3][4]
