Alexandre 'Alex' Miguel Barros Soares (born 1 March 1991) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for C.S. Marítimo as a midfielder.

Football career

Born in Lisbon, Soares played youth football with four local clubs, including S.L. Benfica from ages 10–16. He made his senior debuts with Clube de Futebol Esperança de Lagos, in the fourth division.

In January 2012, after a brief unassuming spell in Greece with Panserraikos FC, Soares returned to his country, joining C.S. Marítimo and being assigned to the reserves in the third level. Two years later, manager Pedro Martins promoted him to the first team.[1]

Soares made his Portuguese top flight debut on 18 August 2013, starting and being booked in a 2–1 home win against former team Benfica.
