Tiago Alexandre Baptista Ferreira (born 16 April 1975), known simply as Tiago, is a Portuguese former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper, currently goalkeeper coach of Sporting CP.

Playing career

[edit]

Born in Torres Vedras, Lisbon District, Tiago spent almost all of his career in Sporting CP. There, he successfully battled for first-choice status with Belgian international Filip De Wilde (1996–98),[1] being loaned to C.F. Estrela da Amadora for two years during Peter Schmeichel's stint at the club.[2] In the 2001–02 season, after the Dane returned to England, he played 18 matches as the Lions won the Primeira Liga championship, his second-best output.[3]

In the following years, more of the same: from 2003 onwards, Tiago played second-fiddle to Ricardo. When the latter moved for Real Betis he backed up youth product Rui Patrício,[4] and remained second or third-choice until his retirement in June 2012 at the age of 37.[5]

Coaching career

[edit]

After retiring, Tiago started working as a goalkeeper coach for both the youth and reserve teams of Sporting.[6] Ahead of the 2017–18 campaign, he was promoted to the main squad in the same role.[7]

Subsequently, Tiago worked in the same capacity with Portimonense SC's under-23 side[6] and G.D. Chaves.[8] In June 2019, he returned to the Estádio José Alvalade.[6]
