Career & Clubs
Calado was born in Lisbon. He started his career with local Casa Pia AC, representing C.F. Estrela da Amadora and S.L. Benfica afterwards and reaching international status with the latter club. In the summer of 2001, Calado signed for La Liga side Real Betis alongside his teammate João Tomás, but both failed to settle, with the midfielder only totalling 22 competitive matches in two seasons. He spent 2003–04 on loan to Segunda División team Polideportivo Ejido, and the move was subsequently made permanent. After 102 overall appearances with 15 goals (he missed the entire 2006–07 campaign due to injury), Calado moved to Cyprus, first with APOP Kinyras FC, joining AEP Paphos FC for 2008–09. He featured regularly for both clubs during his Cypriot First Division spell, leaving the latter in early 2010 and retiring at age 36.
Calado won four caps for the Portugal national team in three years. He also represented the nation at the 1996 Summer Olympics.
