Rui Gil Soares de Barros (born November 24, 1965 in Paredes ) is a former Portuguese football player and current coach . Small, stocky Rui Barros became famous for his fast dribbling and dangerous flanks.
Career
Barros began his football career at FC Porto , where he played the 1985/1986 season, but could not assert himself and was loaned to the small first division club Varzim SC . Rui Barros made his debut in the Portuguese national football team on March 29, 1987 in the European Championship qualifier against Malta in Funchal / Madeira. In his career he made 36 appearances for Portugal over the next nine years, although he scored few hits for an attacking midfielder with four goals.
After his success at Varzim SC, FC Porto brought him back the next season. Barros became the leading player in the squad. He led the team to win the World Cup against Peñarol Montevideo from Uruguay and to defeat Ajax Amsterdam in the UEFA Super Cup .
After these successes of the midfield director Juventus became aware of Barros and signed him for two years from 1988 to 1990. In 1988 Barros was elected Footballer of the Year in Portugal. One of the low points in Ruí Barro's career was the fact that the national team missed qualifying for the 1990 World Cup in Italy by a few points.
In the 1990/1991 season he moved to AS Monaco , where he played until 1993. With Monaco in 1992 he lost the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup against the Werder Bremen team . In the 1993/94 season he played at Olympique Marseille and experienced the scandal surrounding the rigged games in the French league, which led to Marseille being sanctioned with forced relegation. Barros then returned to his hometown club FC Porto , where he played his football career for the last few years. He was there when FC Porto won five national championship titles in a row from 1994/95 to 1998/99.
After returning to Portugal, he played a few more times in the national team, but was not appointed to the squad for the 1996 European Championship by national coach António Oliveira . Oliveira preferred the soon-to-be-forgotten Hugo Porfírio in place of Rui Barros, which sparked some controversy with the country's press. His last appearance in the national team had Barros on December 14, 1996 in the World Cup qualifier against Germany in Lisbon.
Rui Barros officially ended his playing career in the 1999/2000 season at the age of 34. In the 2005/06 season he was the assistant coach of the Dutch coach Co Adriaanse at FC Porto , whom he also successfully represented temporarily after his dismissal in August 2006 and won the Portuguese Super Cup with the team .
