Bruno Lopes

Bruno Lopes is the kind of footballer whose story I imagine plays out far from the spotlight. A Brazilian striker out of Curitiba in Paraná, listed at 181 cm, he combined speed with the size to hold the ball up and win headers. His 13 league goals in his first season at Albirex Niigata in 2011, followed by spells in Portugal, Thailand, Saudi Arabia and back in Japan with Montedio Yamagata, show how far a Brazilian striker's career can travel. To me he represents the deep, often unseen bench of Brazilian football talent.
