Francisco 'Chico' Oliveira Geraldes (born 18 April 1995) is a Portuguese footballer who plays for Sporting CP as a midfielder.

Club career

Born in Lisbon, Geraldes joined local Sporting CP's youth system in 2003, aged 8. On 30 March 2013, whilst still a junior, he made his professional debut with their reserves, playing one minute in a 1–3 home loss against S.L. Benfica B for the Segunda Liga championship.[1]

Geraldes spent the first part of the 2016–17 season on loan to Primeira Liga team Moreirense FC,[2] his maiden appearance in the competition taking place on 13 August 2016 in a 1–1 home draw to F.C. Paços de Ferreira.[3] His first goal came the following weekend, when he helped the visitors defeat C.D. Feirense 3–0 also as a starter.[4]

In late January 2017, both Geraldes and Daniel Podence were recalled from their loans by Sporting manager Jorge Jesus.[5] He made his competitive debut for his parent club on 11 March, coming on as a late substitute in the 4–1 away win over C.D. Tondela.[6]

For 2017–18, still owned by Sporting, Geraldes signed with Rio Ave FC.[7] The following campaign, in the same situation, he joined Germany's Eintracht Frankfurt.[8]

On 24 June 2019, Geraldes was loaned to AEK Athens F.C. with no purchase option included in the deal.[9]

International career

Geraldes won two caps for Portugal at under-21 level. His first was on 6 October 2016, in a 3–3 draw in Hungary for the 2017 UEFA European Championship qualifiers where he provided an assist to Podence;[10] the following month, he featured in the 3–1 friendly win against the Czech Republic in Setúbal.[11]

Personal life

An avid reader, Geraldes listed George Orwell as his favourite author.[12][13]
