Raul José Trindade Meireles (Portuguese pronunciation: [ʁɐˈuɫ mɐjˈɾɛl(ɨ)ʃ] Ra-Ul Mey-Re-Lesh) (born 17 March 1983) is a Portuguese footballer who currently plays for Liverpool as a midfielder in the English Premier League. A four-time Portuguese championship winner with FC Porto, Meireles won the 2011 PFA Fans' Player of the Year award following a personally successful first season at Liverpool.

Club career

Boavista (2001–2004)

In the summer of 2001, Desportivo das Aves from the Liga de Honra (Portuguese second level football competition) signed Meireles on loan from Boavista, and he was presented on 8 July.[2] He made his senior debut on 8 August 2001, in a friendly match against Gondomar, which Desportivo das Aves won 3–0.[3] In his first campaign, Meireles clocked up only 16 league appearances.[4] In the 2002–03 season, on 25 May 2003, he scored his first senior goal against União da Madeira – Meireles fired a shot 30 metres out past the reach of the União goalkeeper.[5] He scored just one goal in twenty-six league appearances that season.[4]

In the 2003–04 season, he returned to Boavista after a two-year loan spell.[6] Meireles made his debut in the Portuguese first league on 17 August 2003 against Benfica, and was chosen as the man of the match by the Portuguese newspaper Record.[7] That season, he failed to score any goals, but he made 29 league appearances, proving that he was important for the team.[4]

Porto (2004–2010)

On 7 July 2004, FC Porto signed Meireles on a five–year contract,[8] being presented in press conference on 12 July.[9] Wearing the #33 shirt,[10] Meireles made his Porto debut on 22 September against União de Leiria at the Estádio do Dragão, coming off the bench in the 59th minute as they drew 1–1.[11][12] On 18 February 2005, he made his first match in the starting XI, in a away league victory against Belenenses.[13] Five days later, on 23 February, Meireles made his Champions League debut against Internazionale, playing the entire 90 minutes.[14] During that season, he made only 13 league appearances, ten as substitute, recording no goals.[15] In the 2005–06 season, on 19 February 2006, Meireles scored his first goal for the team in his 50th league appearance, where Porto beat Marítimo 1–0.[16] Only three games later, on 10 March, he scored his second goal of the season in a 2–0 league victory over Vitória de Setúbal.[17] In that campaign, he scored two goals in 18 appearances,[4] winning his first Portuguese league title and Portuguese Cup. In the following four seasons, Meireles featured regularly in Porto's midfield. He scored his first goal in the Champions League during the 2006–07 season, on 21 February 2007, against Chelsea.[18] He won three Portuguese League titles in a row, in 2006–07, 2007–08, and 2008–09, adding two Portuguese Cups in 2009 and 2010.

Liverpool (2010–present)

On 29 August 2010, Meireles moved to Liverpool for a fee of €13 million,[19] being awarded the #4 shirt, which was vacated by Alberto Aquilani, who joined Juventus in Italy on loan.[20] The club bought the player as an instant replacement for the Argentine Javier Mascherano, who joined FC Barcelona earlier that summer. He made his Premier League debut as a substitute on 12 September 2010 in a 0–0 away draw against Birmingham City.[21] Only four days later, he made his Europa League debut in a 4–1 victory over Steaua Bucureşti at Anfield.[22] He was handed his first league start on 19 September in a 3–2 loss against Manchester United at Old Trafford.[23] Meireles scored his first goal for Liverpool against Everton in a 2–2 draw on 16 January 2011 in Kenny Dalglish's first home game back as manager.[24] His second goal came six days later, with a stunning right foot volley against Wolverhampton Wanders in a 3–0 win.[25] He scored his third goal in four games on 2 February 2011 in a 2–0 home win against Stoke City,[26] and then made it four in five, by scoring at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea in a 1–0 win on 6 February. He increased his goal tally for the club on 12 February by scoring against Wigan Athletic, taking his tally to five goals in six games. A couple of months after his goal streak, Meireles won the 2011 PFA Fans' Player of the Year, beating the likes of Fernando Torres, Samir Nasri, and Dimitar Berbatov.[27]

International career

Youth team

Under-16 to Under-20

Although he features regularly for the Portugal national team, Meireles' international career began at youth level. He represented the Under-16 side at the 2000 UEFA European Under-16 Football Championship in Israel, when his country advanced all the way to the final, beating Czech Republic 2–1.[28][29] The next year, Meireles represented the under-17 team in the 2001 Meridian Cup held in Bari, Italy. In the tournament, he played the entire game on Portugal's opening match 6–0 victory against Nigeria,[30] then he started again in Portugal's following a 1–1 draw against Ghana,[31] and, on the third and last tournament match, he was again in the starting XI during the 4–2 victory over Cameroon. Consequently, Portugal finished third in the competition.[32] In November, he was named in the Portuguese squad for European Under-19 Championship qualifying tournament,[33] where Portugal assured a place in the major competition, and Meireles scored one goal in the 2–1 loss against Belarus.[34] On 2 June 2003, he was selected in the Portuguese Under-20 squad for the 2003 Toulon Tournament,[35] which Portugal won and saw Meireles nominated second best player of the tournament.[36]

Under-21 and Olympics

Raul Meireles featured regularly in the 2004 European Under-21 Championship qualifying stage, including an epic playoff game against France where the midfielder played the entire game, and Portugal emerged victorious 4–1 on penalties.[37][38] As expected, he was named in the 2004 European Under-21 Championship Portuguese squad. Meireles played in four of Portugal's five matches in the tournament, including the 3–1 defeat against Sweden,[39] the 2–2 draw against Switzerland,[40] and the 2–1 victory over Germany, all in the group stage.[41] He missed the semi-finals match due to a suspension,[42] but he appeared again in the third place match victory against Sweden, where Portugal assured a place in the 2004 Summer Olympics.[43] On 21 July 2004, Meireles was selected as a part of José Romão's 18-man squad for the 2004 Summer Olympics held in Athens, Greece.[44] In the first group game against Iraq, Meireles came on as a second-half substitute, where Portugal lost 4–2.[45] He started the next two group stage matches. Portugal won their second game against Morocco,[46] and lost 4–2 in their third against Costa Rica, and consequently, they were eliminated from the tournament.[47]

Senior team

In November 2006, Raul Meireles had his first appearance for the Portuguese national team, in a UEFA Euro 2008 qualifying match against Kazakhstan.[48][49] On 12 May 2008, Meireles was selected for the Portuguese Euro 2008 squad.[50] In this tournament, he came on as a 83rd minute substitute in Portugal's first group stage match against Turkey, scoring his first international goal. He then started alongside Portugal's reserve players in their third group match against host-nation Switzerland.[51] Four days later, Meireles made his third appearance in the tournament, when he came on as a substitute for João Moutinho after 31 minutes in the quarter-final 3–2 loss against Germany.[52]

Meireles featured regularly in the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifying matches. He scored an important away goal in the 1–0 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the second play-off game after scraping a 1–0 win in Lisbon. Portugal won 2–0 on aggregate and qualified for the final stages in South Africa.[53] As expected, on 10 May 2010, Meireles was named in the Portuguese squad for the 2010 World Cup.[54] He started all of Portugal's matches at the tournament, scoring one goal in Portugal's second group stage match against North Korea in Cape Town.[55] Portugal reached the Round of 16, where they lost 1–0 against eventual champions Spain.

Playing style

Meireles is primarily a central midfielder, but has on occasion played at the right side of midfield at Liverpool. His versatility is marked by him playing at both a deep and attacking role in the middle of the park, having mainly played in a defensive role while at Porto. Meireles has scored several goals from distance for Porto, Liverpool and the national team and likes to use his right foot for attempts at target.
