Eduardo Quaresma, born on 2 March 2002, hails from Portugal and now, at the ripe age of 23, has established himself as a central defender of some repute for the team Sporting CP. Standing tall at 6ft (1.85m) and weighing in at 12st 3lb (78kg), Quaresma commands the field with his physical presence. When he sports that number 72 jersey, the opponents know they have a formidable force to reckon with.
As per data from Transfermarkt, Quaresma's current market value hovers at around £15.5m. With just over 3 years of his contract left to run at Sporting CP, the football world is keeping an interested eye on Quaresma's trajectory, a contract that is due to expire on the 30th of June, 2028.
Reminiscing back to his debut season in 2019-2020, Quaresma made nine first team appearances for Sporting CP. The following season he made a mere two appearances. While these humble beginnings might not have made the headlines, it's these stumbles that make the ensuing success souvenir even sweeter.
The 2021-2022 season was a turn of tide for Quaresma. Taking to the field under the banner of Tondela in Portugal, he made 25 first team appearances and netted twice. His next season was not quite as eventful, with Quaresma making only four appearances for 1899 Hoffenheim in Germany.
Upon returning to Sporting CP in the 2023-2024 season, Quaresma seems to have truly found his rhythm. Making a solid 20 first team appearances and scoring a goal, he has demonstrated his steadily increasing value as a player. Fast-forward to the current 2024-2025 season, Quaresma seems well-set in his stride, already boasting 20 first team appearances and one goal scored.
Quaresma's list of credits further include participation in the Europa League 2023-2024 with three starts and one substitute appearance under his belt, along with playing in the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira 2024-2025 where he started once and the Champions League 2024-2025 where he made two starts and has been utilised as a substitute three times. From a young boy in Portugal to a respected figure on international turf, Eduardo Quaresma is certainly a name to remember in the realm of football.
