Alberto Aladje Gomes de Pina (born 22 October 1993), known as Aladje, is a Portuguese footballer who plays for Italian club A.C.R. Messina as a forward.

Club career

Born in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau to a father of Portuguese descent, Aladje started playing organized football with Calcio Padova in Italy.[1] In summer 2012 he was acquired by Serie A club A.C. ChievoVerona,[2][3] but never represented the team officially, first being loaned to F.C. Aprilia in Lega Pro Seconda Divisione.

On 8 July 2014, already owned by U.S. Sassuolo Calcio, Aladje signed with F.C. Pro Vercelli 1892 also in a temporary deal.[4] His first and only appearance as a professional took place on 6 December of that year, when he came on as a 76th-minute substitute in a 0–4 home loss against Delfino Pescara 1936 for the Serie B.[5]

On 20 August 2019, Aladje joined A.C.R. Messina.[6] In the beginning of December 2019, he suffered from a serious knee injury which required a surgery. Aladja was ruled out for about three months.[7]

International career

Aladje chose to represent Portugal internationally, first being selected to the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Turkey. He started for the national team in the group stage opener against Nigeria, scoring in a 3–2 win;[8] he added a further two in the next two games, with South Korea and (2–2) Cuba (5–0).[9][10]

Aladje won his only cap for the under-21 side on 14 August 2013, playing 78 minutes in a 5–2 friendly win over Switzerland.[11]
