Júlio César da Silva e Souza (born 26 February 1980) is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a forward.

Career

[edit]

Júlio César was born in Itaguaí, Brazil. He played for Turkish side Gaziantepspor, joining them from Rapid București.[1] He was released by Rapid București during the winter break because he did not play as good as expected for the money spent on him, he was the highest paid member of the squad and also Rapid had financial problems.[2] In the 2009–10 season he scored 13 goals for Gaziantepspor, making him the top goalscorer of the team and the second goalscorer of the Turkish Süper Lig, after Ariza Makukula.[3]

Júlio César also played for Greek side AEK Athens from 2005 to 2008.[4] He scored the goal in the famous 1–0 win for AEK against AC Milan in front of over 69.000 spectators in the Olympic Stadium Athens with a direct free kick.[5][6]
