José Gildeixon Clemente de Paiva (3 September 1987 – 28 November 2016), commonly known as Gil, was a Brazilian footballer who last played for Chapecoense as a defensive midfielder.

Gil was one of the victims when LaMia Airlines Flight 2933 crashed on 28 November 2016.

Club career[edit]

Gil started his career at Santa Cruz-RN. In 2005, he joined Mogi Mirim after impressing on a trial,[1] and subsequently became an undisputed starter for the side. He then had spells at Guaratinguetá and Série A club Vitória in 2009, making his division debut for the latter on 16 July in a 1–1 away draw against Náutico.[2]

Released by Vitória in December 2009, Gil signed for Santo André in Série B.[3] Sparingly used by the club during the season, he moved to fellow second tier club Ponte Preta.[4]

In April 2011, after impressing in the year's Campeonato Paulista, Gil agreed to a contract with Coritiba,[5] but was only registered in June.[6] He made his debut for the club on 1 July, replacing Tcheco in a 3–1 home victory against Ceará.[7]

After several campaigns as a starter, Gil was loaned to fellow top tier side Chapecoense on 3 January 2015.[8] He scored his first goal in the category on 30 May, but in a 1–3 loss at former club Ponte Preta.

Gil rescinded his contract with Coxa in December 2015, and signed for Chape permanently.

Death[edit]

On 28 November 2016, whilst at the service of Chapecoense, Gil was among the fatalities of the LaMia Airlines Flight 2933 accident in the Colombian village of Cerro Gordo, La Unión, Antioquia.[9]
