Club career
[edit]Bica played for a number of clubs in Peru, including Sporting Cristal, Sport Boys and Universitario de Deportes.[1] He also had a spell with Paniliakos in the Greek Super League during the 1997–98 season.[2] He spent a few months playing in England for English Premier League side Sunderland A.F.C.[3] and then First Division side Walsall at the end of 1999. His play was characterised by his swift and fluid running and incredible ball control skills. His powerful heading and his shooting from distance gave him the nickname "enerpoçinho" amongst his peers, fans and teammates. He's now a successful football player's agent from Overlap Soccer & Marketing company (www.overlapsoccer.com.br).[4]
