Jorginho Soares (born 25 September 2002) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Spanish club Terrassa on loan from Telstar. Born in the Netherlands, he has Cape Verdean citizenship.[2]

Career[edit]

Early years[edit]

Soares played youth football in the youth teams of Dordrecht and VV Spijkenisse. As a 17-year-old, he made his debut for Spijkenisse's first team in the Hoofdklasse, and helped the team win the title of the 2016–17 Saturday A division.[3][4] In 2017, at the age of 18, he moved to SC Heerenveen's academy. However, due in part to injuries, he never made his breakthrough at that club.[5]

ASWH[edit]

In December 2021, after more than a year without a club, Soares joined Tweede Divisie club ASWH.[3][6] He made his debut for the club on 12 February 2022, starting in a 3–1 victory against GVVV.[7] He remained a starter from then on, and extended his contract with the club on 20 February 2022.[8] On 12 March, he scored his first senior goal in a 2–2 home draw against Koninklijke HFC.[9][10]

Telstar[edit]

On 14 July 2022, Soares signed a one-year contract with an option for two additional years with Eerste Divisie club Telstar after a successful trial.[11][12] He made his professional debut on 8 August 2022, replacing Mihkel Ainsalu in the 81st minute of a 1–1 draw against Jong Ajax.[13]

On 29 March 2023, Telstar announced the extension of Soares' contract, keeping him at the club until 2025.[14]

On 1 February 2024, Soares moved on loan to Terrassa, which plays in the Spanish fourth-tier Segunda Federación.[15]
