Jorge Filipe Vidigal (born 29 January 1978) is an Angolan retired footballer who played as a right back.

Club career

Born in Elvas, Portugal, Vidigal played most of his career in the country's lower leagues, representing hometown club O Elvas CAD (two spells), G.D. Estoril Praia, S.C. Olhanense and C.F. União. He also spent two years at Sporting CP, but appeared almost exclusively for its reserves.

Vidigal's only full Primeira Liga experience came with S.C. Beira-Mar, who signed the player from Olhanense – where he also appeared as a defensive midfielder – on a two-year contract.[1] He only appeared in ten matches in his debut season, and the Aveiro team was relegated.

In the summer of 2008, after a brief stint in Madeira with União, Vidigal joined C.R. Caála, returning to the land of his ancestors.[2]

International career

With his older brother Lito as coach, Vidigal earned one international cap for Angola on 27 August 2011, as a substitute in a 2–1 friendly loss to DR Congo in Dundo.[3]

Personal life

Vidigal was the youngest of 13 brothers and sisters, four of his male siblings also being footballers: Beto, Lito – who represented Angola as a player and coach – Luís (played for Sporting and Portugal with success, spent several years in Italy and was coached by Lito at C.F. Estrela da Amadora) and Toni.[4][5][6] His nephew, André, was also involved in the sport professionally.[7][8]
