Nuno Herlander Simões Espírito Santo (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈnunu (ɨ)ʃˈpiɾitu ˈsɐ̋tu]; born 25 January 1974), known simply as Nuno as a player, is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a goalkeeper, and is the current head coach of English club Wolverhampton Wanderers.

During his career he first made a name for himself in Spain, playing for three teams in five years. He later represented Porto in his country, albeit with little impact, and also played professionally in Russia.

Nuno was part of the Portuguese squad at Euro 2008, but never won a cap for the national team. In 2012, he became a manager, leading Rio Ave to both domestic cup finals in 2014 before taking the reins at Valencia.

Playing career

Born in São Tomé, Portuguese São Tomé and Príncipe, Nuno started his football career with Vitória S.C. in Guimarães, battling from age 20 with veteran Neno for first-choice status. In January 1997 he was acquired by La Liga's Deportivo de La Coruña, but would spend three of his six seasons in Galicia on loan, backing up Jacques Songo'o (1996–98) and José Francisco Molina (2001–02) when he was part of the team.

In the 1999–2000 season, as he represented CP Mérida in the Spanish second division, Nuno won the Ricardo Zamora Trophy and helped the side finish sixth, but it would be relegated to the third level due to irregularities.[1]

FC Porto paid €3 million to bring Nuno back from Spain in July 2002, as part of Jorge Andrade's deal.[2] During a 2003 Portuguese Cup match against Varzim SC, he was allowed by manager José Mourinho to convert a penalty kick, scoring the club's last goal in a 7–0 home routing.[3] On 12 December 2004, he replaced club great Vítor Baía during extra time of the Intercontinental Cup final penalty shootout victory against Once Caldas; however, in January, he was sold to Russian Premier League's FC Dynamo Moscow.

Again in January, in 2007, Nuno returned to Portugal for a stint with C.D. Aves,[4] eventually relegated from the Primeira Liga. In July he returned to Porto, backing up Brazilian Helton during most of his spell.

Uncapped, Nuno was called to the Portuguese squad competing in UEFA Euro 2008, replacing the injured Quim.[5] During the 2008–09 season he again played second-fiddle to Helton appearing in only four games, but was the starter throughout the domestic cup campaign, including the final win (1–0) against F.C. Paços de Ferreira.

Managerial career

On 21 June 2010, Porto announced Nuno's contract would not be renewed.[6] The 36-year-old said he would always support Porto as he left.[7] After his retirement he rejoined former Porto manager Jesualdo Ferreira, moving to Málaga CF as a goalkeeping coach; the pair signed for Panathinaikos FC in November 2010.

In May 2012, Rio Ave F.C. sacked manager Carlos Brito and announced the appointment of Espírito Santo.[8] In his second season in charge, he qualified the team to both the Portuguese Cup and League Cup finals,[9] also taking it to the UEFA Europa League for the first time in its history.

Espírito Santo signed a one-year contract with Valencia CF in La Liga on 4 July 2014, replacing fired Juan Antonio Pizzi.[10] On 12 January 2015, he agreed to an extension to keep him at the club until 2018,[11] and he eventually led it to the fourth place in his first year,[12] highlights including a 2–1 home win over Real Madrid and a 2–2 away draw against the same opponent.[13][14] Espírito Santo resigned on 29 November 2015, following a 0–1 away defeat to Sevilla FC.[15]

On 1 June 2016, Espírito Santo signed a two-year contract with Porto, replacing former head coach José Peseiro.[16] The following 22 May, however, after a season completely devoid of silverware, he was relieved of his duties.[17]

On 31 May 2017, Espírito Santo was named as the new head coach of English Championship side Wolverhampton Wanderers, signing a three-year deal.[18]
