Playing career

edit

Born in Lisbon, Campos spent several youth years at C.F. Os Belenenses, but began his senior playing career in the third tier before signing for top-flight S.C. Campomaiorense in 1997. He was part of their squad that lost the 1999 Taça de Portugal Final 1–0 to S.C. Beira-Mar.[2]

Coaching career

edit

Santa Clara

edit

Campos retired in 2005 and took up coaching in 2011. He began as assistant manager to Paulo Fonseca in several countries. He was appointed manager of C.D. Santa Clara on 7 October 2021, replacing Daniel Ramos at the helm for the rest of the season.[3] He made his debut nine days later in a 2–0 win at U.D. Leiria in the third round of the Taça de Portugal.[4] On 23 October, he lost 2–0 at home to F.C. Famalicão in his first league game.[5]

On 15 December 2021, Campos was dismissed. He had won one and drawn one of his six league game, and the team were in 16th.[6]

Tondela

edit

Campos returned to work in the top flight on 16 March 2022, succeeding Pako Ayestarán at 16th-placed C.D. Tondela.[7] On his debut three days later, the team drew 2–2 at home to F.C. Arouca.[8] On the final day of the season, the team from the Beira conceded two equalisers in a 2–2 draw with Boavista F.C. also at the Estádio João Cardoso, allowing Moreirense F.C. to rise above them outside the relegation zone.[9]

In the 2021–22 Taça de Portugal, Campos led Tondela to their first cup final with a 4–1 aggregate win over C.D. Mafra, though the three goals of the first leg were under his predecessor.[10] There, they lost 3–1 to FC Porto, who completed a double.[11] He was then replaced by Tozé Marreco.[12]
