Luís Pedro Barros Barny Monteiro, known as Barny (born 20 July 1966), is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a central defender, and a current manager.

Playing career

Born in Porto, Barny played in 332 top division games over the course of 13 seasons, representing mainly hometown club Boavista FC. After three years of intermittent use as a youngster and a two-year spell with C.F. Estrela da Amadora,[1][2] he returned to his main club, helping it to three top-four finishes in his four campaigns there – in between, he spent the 1992–93 campaign with Sporting Clube de Portugal, being first-choice.

Barny retired in June 1999 at the age of 33, after three top flight seasons with C.F. Os Belenenses and one with C.D. Aves, in his first and only second level experience. He won two Portuguese Cups from 1990 to 1992, with Estrela and Boavista.

Manager career

Barny started coaching two years after retiring. In 2004 he rejoined Boavista as an assistant coach, acting as interim in the 2004–05 and 2006–07 seasons[3] for a total of four top flight matches (one draw and three losses).

From 2007 to 2009 Barny was in charge of S.C. Espinho in division three, then resumed his assistant career in several teams and countries, mostly under countryman Manuel José.[4][5]
