Josimar Dias (born 3 June 1986 in Mindelo, São Vicente, Cape Verde), known as Vozinha, is a Cape Verdean international association football goalkeeper who plays for AEL Limassol.

Club career

Vozinha began his career in Batuque FC of São Vicente in 2009, playing for them until 2011 before moving to local city rivals CS Mindelense. Following good showings with the club, he was signed by Progresso FC in Luanda, Angola. He will make a return to Mindelense in 2013, where he will play in the São Vicente Island League.

International career

Vozinha made his debut for Cape Verde in 2012 in a friendly against Ghana at Lisbon. After an injury to Fock, he was called up to play for Cape Verde in their qualifying play-offs against Cameroon for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations. He was a major part of the side that stunned the 'Indomitable Lions' 3–2 on aggregate, thus becoming the first Cape Verdean side good enough to qualify for a major tournament, the Africa Cup of Nations. He is now considered a core player of the national side.[3]
