Horácio José Paredes Mota Gonçalves (born 15 December 1962) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a forward, and the current manager of Mozambican club CD Costa do Sol.

Career

Born in Guimarães, Gonçalves was a youth player at hometown club Vitória S.C. and played his only Primeira Liga season with them in 1985–86, scoring once in ten games. He spent the bulk of his career in the second tier, achieving figures of 234 games and 69 goals for six clubs, including two spells at AD Fafe.

Having retired with third-tier Varzim S.C. in 1994 he became their manager, overseeing consecutive promotions to reach the top flight in 1997. He also managed G.D. Chaves at that level immediately after, but spent the rest of his career at lower levels. In December 2004 he returned to second-from-bottom Varzim on an 18-month deal,[1] losing his job in late February 2007 after a run of ten games without a win.[2]

After four years with Asteras Tripolis F.C. of Super League Greece – mostly in additional roles with just four games as manager – Gonçalves returned to Portugal's second tier with Leixões S.C. in February 2012.[3] He left the 10th-placed club in November to return to the Eastern Mediterranean, with AEP Paphos FC in the Cypriot First Division;[4] his spell there was only for three weeks.[5]

Gonçalves came back to Portugal's second tier with C.D. Santa Clara,[6] a second spell at Leixões,[7] and S.C. Farense.[8] In February 2017 he took over at F.C. Felgueiras 1932, his first job at the third level in over 15 years.[9]

In mid-2018, Gonçalves moved abroad again to CD Costa do Sol in Mozambique, succeeding the Argentne Leonardo Costas. In 2019, his team won the Moçambola, Taça de Moçambique, Supertaça de Mozambique and the Maputo Top 8 Tournament.[10]
