Jovane Cabral, born on 14 June 1998 (age 28), is a Cape Verde international winger now with Estrela Amadora, where he wears number 11 and plays mainly from the left. His current market value is around £850,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Cabral’s career was shaped in Portugal, with his Sporting CP background giving him a platform before loan spells took him elsewhere and tested whether he could turn flashes into regular output. Those moves gave him senior experience without quite fixing his place in one side for long, which is often the less tidy part of a winger’s education.
At Estrela Amadora in 2025 - 2026, he has been more than a squad option. He has made 27 Liga Portugal appearances and scored seven goals, his most productive league season to date. That return has kept him a regular first-team presence rather than a name drifting around the edges.
He has also remained involved with Cape Verde this season, making one World Cup appearance and six appearances in African World Cup qualifying, with one goal. At club level, the story is fairly plain: a wide player who has moved around, found more end product at Estrela, and is still playing regular senior football.
