João Carlos Gonçalves Filho (born 9 November 1983), known as Nenê, is a Brazilian futsal player who plays as a pivot for APOEL.

Career

Born in São Paulo, Nenê arrived in European futsal at the hands of Sporting CP coach, Paulo Fernandes.[1] He spent three years there, winning one league in his first year, and two Portuguese cups in the remaining.[1]

In 2008, he left Sporting and moved to the Russian league, joining MFK CSKA Moscow, without much success. He then spent two years at Nacional Zagreb, winning both a league and a national cup.[1]

After one year in Belgium, at Action 21, Paulo Fernandes, now at Benfica, brought him to the Eagles on 28 July 2012.[1][2] In Lisbon, he only won one supercup over two seasons, so he was released on 19 June 2014, together with Joel Queirós and Marcão.[3] Since 2014, he is playing with Serbian club KMF Ekonomac Kragujevac.[4] winning two league titles, and one Serbian cup.
