Where is Luis Boa Morte now?
A former club captain and a huge fan’s favourite at Fulham, Luis Boa Morte retired from playing professionally in 2013 after a brief spell playing in the lower leagues with Chesterfield.
Renowned for his passionate, never say die performances on the pitch and his ability to bond with fans at every club he played for he made over 350 first team club appearances and picked up a Premier League winner’s medal in 1998 during his time at Arsenal.
On the international front he represented the Portugal senior side on 28 occasions and featured in the 2006 FIFA World Cup Finals.
Upon retiring from playing, Boa Morte went into the coaching side of the game and spent time assisting the coaches at the Fulham academy before returning to Portugal to coach the Sporting Lisbon’s under-19’s team.
After a successful season with a second place finish in the Portuguese National Championships, he decided to return to the UK to coach within the English leagues.
After working for former side Arsenal as a scout specialising in Portuguese talent, Boa Morte was appointed manager of Portuguese third division side Sintrense in February 2017.
He then spent time coaching at Israeli side Maccabi Haifa, before making a return to the Premier League in June 2019 when he joined Marco Silva at Everton as assistant manager. However, the pair were sacked just six months into their tenure after a poor run in the league left them close to the relegation spots.
In July 2021 Boa Morte returned to coaching when he was appointed as Silva’s assistant manager at former side Fulham and stayed at the club for three years before quitting domestic football for international football when he was appointed in his current role as manager of the Guinea-Bissau national side.
