Paulo Silas do Prado Pereira or just Paulo Silas (born August 27, 1965 in Campinas ) is a former Brazilian soccer player and current coach. During his active career, he played for a total of sixteen different clubs on three continents.

Player career

society

Paulo Silas was trained in the youth department of FC São Paulo . In 1985 he moved to the professional squad of the club, for which he should be active until 1988. At that time, São Paulo was going through a radical change and Silas found himself in a team mixed with players like Müller and Sidney and experienced players like Careca . The team immediately won the São Paulo state championship . During this time, Silas moved into the focus of the national team. In 1988 the midfielder ventured to Europe, where he signed with Sporting Lisbon . In two years at the Portuguese top club, however, it was not enough to win a title. Although Silas came regularly to missions, he surprisingly moved to Uruguay in 1990 , to Central Español . After only two games and three goals, the offensive player decided again for a transfer to other European countries. In the same year he got an engagement with the Italian club AC Cesena . However, the team played only against relegation, which they missed, and the end of the season 1990/91 she had in the series B dismount. However, Silas left the club and joined league rivals Sampdoria Genoa . There he was a top performer and helped the team to a sixth place in the league. Even before the start of the season, the champions of the previous season secured the Supercoppa Italiana with a 1-0 win against AS Roma . Here Silas was on the pitch for the full 90 minutes. This should be the only European title win for the offensive player. Already in the summer of 1992 both parties parted ways and the offensive player went back to his homeland, where he joined SC Internacional . For the 1994 season he moved to CR Vasco da Gama , where they won the Rio de Janeiro State Championship in the same year . In the fight for the Brazilian championship, however, it did not go so well and it was only enough to place in the lower table field. In 1995 Silas went to the Asian continent, where he signed a contract with the Japanese agent Kashiwa Reysol . There he met his former national team-mate Careca. Together they made it to the J. League . After this brief interlude, Silas went to Argentina , to CA San Lorenzo de Almagro . The midfielder stayed there for some time and was a key player in the team structure. In 1995 he won the Clausura championship with his new club . But there was no further success. In 1997, Silas said goodbye and went to his youth club, São Paulo FC. But after less than twenty games for this club, he transferred again to Japen to hire Kyōto Sanga . After two seasons, Silas moved back to Brazil in 2000, where he was again active for one year each for Athletico Paranaense , Rio Branco EC , Ituano FC , América (MG) , Portuguesa and Inter de Limeira . There he was able to win the state championship of Paraná in 2000 and of São Paulo in 2002.

National team

Paulo Silas played in Brazil's youth team before he was called to the senior national team. In 1985 he took part in the U-20 World Junior Championship , which the Brazilian selection won. In addition, Silas was awarded the “Golden Ball” as the best player of the tournament. A year later he was nominated for the World Cup of the senior national teams in Mexico, where he came to two short appearances. The midfielder made his World Cup debut in the 4-0 eighth-final win against the team from Poland when he came on for Müller in the 73rd minute . Silas was also in action in the quarter-finals, when Brazil were eliminated from France after a penalty. Silas made his A-team debut on March 16, 1986 in a friendly against Hungary . Four years after his first World Cup, Silas was part of coach Sebastião Lazaroni's squad for the 1990 World Cup in Italy. There he inherited the Brazilian legend Zico and took over his jersey with the number "10". But at the World Cup, which was disappointing for Brazil, the offensive player was mostly just a spectator and was only substituted on in three matches and had a total of 18 minutes of playing time. One of his greatest successes in the national team was winning the Copa America in 1989 . As early as 1987 he was used in this tournament for Brazil. He was substituted on on June 28, 1987 in the 71st minute of the game against Venezuela.

In the dress of the Seleção , Silas completed a total of 34 official and a total of 38 games, but only managed one goal.

Coaching career

After his playing career, Silas became a coach. The first club he looked after was the lower class club Fortaleza EC in 2007 . For the 2009 season he took over the chief post at Avaí FC , which was just promoted to the first division . With them he won the Campeonato Catarinense de Futebol . In the league they finished sixth and qualified for the second qualifying round of the Copa Sudamericana . His good performance as a coach has brought him the attention of major Brazilian teams. On December 7, 2009 it was announced that Silar would be the new coach at Gremio Porto Alegre for the new season . Right away, he managed to win the state championship in Rio Grande do Sul . But soon afterwards, the football teacher switched to the traditional Brazilian club Flamengo Rio de Janeiro , where he replaced Rogério Lourenço . However, this commitment only lasted for a short time and Silas was replaced by the former national coach of Brazil, Vanderlei Luxemburgo . In 2011, his former club Avaí FC took him back under contract. However, Silas stayed only briefly and in June of the same year he took over his first coaching position abroad, where he is now responsible for al-Arabi in Qatar . At his new club, Silas was obliged to replace his compatriot Péricles Chamusca , who shortly before moved to league rivals Al-Jaish . With al-Arabi, Silas managed to win the Sheikh Jassem Cup after defeating Umm-Salal SC 3-2 in the final .
