Nuno Miguel dos Santos Gomes (born 6 December 1979 in Porto) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a central defender.

Football career

A Boavista F.C. youth graduate who never played for its first team – or in the country's top division – Gomes plied the vast majority of his trade in the lower leagues of Portugal, Spain and Greece. His only two top level experiences came with Marsaxlokk F.C. in the Maltese Premier League and FC Vaslui, appearing in just two Liga I games in his only season with the latter club.

Gomes retired from football at the age of only 28.
