Biography
Tininho signed for Albion for a fee of £230,000 from Portuguese side
Beira Mar and signed a two year deal with a further twelve months
option in the club’s favour after impressing in a four day trial
during which he appeared in a friendly against Northampton Town,
helping to set up a couple of the goals in Albion’s 5-1 win. A pacey
attacking left-back who finds space well and can put over excellent
crosses.
Tininho played in every game for his previous club Beira mar in
2006-07 making 30 appearances including one as a substitute, but
following the clubs relegation from the top flight was made available
for transfer.
