Fernando Manuel de Jesus Santos (born 17 March 1973 in Porto), commonly known as Nandinho is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a right winger.

Career

After good performances at Salgueiros, including scoring twice against Benfica, Nandinho joined the Reds in 1998, at the hands of Graeme Souness. But the British manager favored British players, so he was dismissed, ending the season at Alverca, where he achieved good performances, including scoring a hat-trick against Sporting CP in 17 April 1999.[1] He then moves to Vitória Guimarães, being dismissed by Paulo Autuori in 2001. After the brazilian is sacked, Álvaro Magalhães reinstates him.[2] In 2002, he joins Gil Vicente and in January 2007, he moves to Leixões.[3][4]
