Nuno Miguel dos Santos Gomes (born 6 December 1979) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a central defender.

Club career

[edit]

Gomes was born in Porto. A Boavista F.C. youth graduate who never played for its first team – or in the country's Primeira Liga – he plied the vast majority of his trade in the lower leagues of Portugal, Spain and Greece. His only two top-division experiences came with Marsaxlokk F.C. in the Maltese Premier League and FC Vaslui, appearing in just two Liga I games in his only season with the latter club.

Gomes retired from football at the age of only 28.
