Career

Caju spent his early years in Honduras, where his father Marinho Rodrigues managed Club Deportivo Olimpia during the early 1960s. In the mid 1960s Marinho took over as manager in Colombian club Junior de Barranquilla, where Caju debuted as a professional, at age 16, playing alongside Brazilian internationals Dida and Escurinho.[2]

In 1967 he moved to Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas, making his debut at age 17. He won the Campeonato Carioca (championship of the state of Rio de Janeiro) several times and many more trophies which led him to become one of Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas' all-time greatest and most honoured players.

Caju was most widely known as a member of the Brazilian national team in the World Cup in 1970 and in 1974. With the Brazilian national team he collected 57 caps and 10 goals.[3]

Caju featured in the Brazilian Bola de Ouro team of the season in Brazil in the seasons 1970, 1972, 1976, 1977.

In the 1990s,[4] Paulo César Lima was the subject of a documentary film by João Moreira Salles[5] The documentary depicts his flamboyance on and off the field during his days as a football player, and the difficult adjustments he had to make afterwards, outside of the limelight, and surviving on his income as a landlord.[4][6][7]
