Sylvinho

Sylvio Mendes Campos Júnior (born 12 April 1974), commonly known as Sylvinho (sometimes alternatively spelled Silvinho), is a Brazilian football manager and former player, who coaches the Albania national football team. Formerly a left-back, he began his career at Corinthians. He was signed by Arsenal in 1999, and was a popular player in his two seasons at the club. He left for Celta Vigo of La Liga, before joining Barcelona in 2004, with whom he won the UEFA Champions League in 2006 and 2009 among other honours. He returned to England to spend his final season as a player with Manchester City in 2009–10. Upon moving into management, he had brief stints at French club Lyon and Brazilian side Corinthians, before being named coach of the Albanian national team in 2023, subsequently qualifying them for UEFA Euro 2024.
