Playing career


Veríssimo was born in Vila Franca de Xira, Lisbon District. During his professional career, the youth graduate at S.L. Benfica (having joined the club's youth system at the age of 12, he only appeared in four first-team games during his short spell)[1] represented F.C. Alverca – the first of his spells being while they acted as the former's farm team[2][3]– Académica de Coimbra, Vitória de Setúbal, C.D. Fátima and C.D. Mafra.

In the Primeira Liga alone, Veríssimo amassed totals of 221 matches and two goals, mostly for Alverca and Setúbal, adding 149 games and three goals in the Segunda Liga. He earned 19 caps for the Portugal under-21 team.


Coaching career


Veríssimo rejoined Benfica immediately after retiring, being appointed assistant coach with the reserves in the second division, first under Luís Norton de Matos,[4] then former teammate at the club Hélder Cristóvão.[5][6] In January 2019, as Bruno Lage was named caretaker manager at the main squad, he assumed the same position in the secondary team;[7] he returned to the latter's technical staff shortly after, now permanently in charge of the main squad.[8]

When Lage resigned in July 2020, after Benfica fell into second place behind FC Porto in the closing stages of the season, Veríssimo took interim charge of the first team;[9] he won 3–1 at home to Boavista F.C. on his debut.[10]

After the appointment of Jorge Jesus as manager of the first team, Veríssimo was named manager of the reserves, replacing Renato Paiva. In December 2021, after Jesus was sacked, he was again named interim of the main squad, leaving Benfica B as leader of the Portuguese second league.[11] He led the team into the Final of the Taça da Liga, losing 2–1 against Sporting CP.[12] Benfica remained trophyless, and Veríssimo guided the club to the Champions League quarter-finals, losing to Liverpool 6–4 on aggregate and a disappointing third place finish, qualifying to the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League.[13][14]

After leaving Benfica at the end of the season, Veríssimo was announced as the newest manager of G.D. Estoril Praia, replacing Bruno Pinheiro, who had recently left the club.[15]
