André Filipe Brás André (born 26 August 1989) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Vitória S.C. as a midfielder.
Club career
Born in Vila do Conde, André was brought up at F.C. Porto and Varzim SC. He made his senior debuts with the latter in 2008, scoring six goals in 49 second division games in two seasons combined.
In the first half of the 2010–11 campaign, André joined Deportivo de La Coruña B in Spain on a 2+2 contract,[1] suffering relegation from the third level (only three matches played), a fate which also befell his previous team. He returned to Varzim in January 2011.
In 2011–12, André netted 12 goals from his midfield position to help Varzim return to division two after just one year,[2] even though the team could not eventually promote due to irregularities. In the off-season, he signed with Vitória S.C. in the top division.
International career
André represented Portugal at under-19 level. He made his debut with the full side on 31 March 2015, coming on as a 66th minute substitute for Adrien Silva in a 0–2 friendly defeat against Cape Verde in Estoril.[3]
