Jorge Vidigal

Jorge Filipe Vidigal is an Angolan retired footballer who played as a right-back.

Club career

Born in Elvas, Portugal, Vidigal played most of his career in the country's lower leagues, representing hometown club O Elvas CAD, G.D. Estoril Praia, S.C. Olhanense and C.F. União. He also spent two years at Sporting CP, but appeared almost exclusively for its reserves.
Vidigal's only full Primeira Liga experience came with S.C. Beira-Mar, who signed the player from Olhanense – where he also appeared as a defensive midfielder – on a two-year contract. He only appeared in 11 matches in his debut season, and the Aveiro team were relegated.
In the summer of 2008, following a brief stint in Madeira with União, Vidigal joined C.R. Caála, returning to the land of his ancestors.

With his older brother Lito as coach, Vidigal earned one international cap for Angola on 27 August 2011, as a substitute in a 2–1 friendly loss to DR Congo in Dundo.

Vidigal was the youngest of 13 brothers and sisters, four of his male siblings also being footballers: Beto, Lito – who represented Angola as a player and coach – Luís and Toni. His nephew André was also involved in the sport professionally.
