He made his debut in adult football in 1947, playing for the "Sanjuanense" team. With his game for this team, he attracted the attention of representatives of the coaching staff of "Sao Paulo" , which he joined in 1948. Played the next eleven seasons of his playing career for the Sao Paulo team. Most of his time with São Paulo, he was the team's main defensive player and won four São Paulo state championships with the team. In 1960, he moved to the club "Santos", nicknamed "Os Santásticos", which was considered to be one of the greatest clubs in the world, he played 7 seasons. While playing for Santos, he also mostly appeared on the field in the main team and won five more state championships, but the greatest achievement for the player was two consecutive victories in the Copa Libertadores (1962, 1963), which allowed the team to play in the Intercontinental Cup. In both draws, "Santus" defeated European rivals, becoming the strongest team in the world two years in a row
. He ended his professional career as a football player with performances for the "Santos" team in 1967. He moved abroad for the first time in his career in 1967 he played for Toluca until 1968 and he retired due groin injury.
International career
In 1948, he made his debut in official matches as part of the Brazilian national team. The following year, he was part of the national team, he participated in the 1949 South American Championship in Brazil, winning the title of continental champion that year.
Four years later, at the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland, already under Zezé Moreira, Mauro Ramos was on the application list, but did not play in a single match, giving up the position of central defender to Fluminense player Pinheiro. After that, Mauro played in the 1956 South American Championship in Uruguay, finishing fourth, In 1957 Mauro was almost not named for the Copa América, but his wonderful performances at Saõ Paulo led him to play in that tournament. Brazil finished as runners-up, and by the 1958 World Cup in Sweden, Mauro Ramos had already become the idol of "São Paulo", continuing to show a great game and being in great sports shape. This could not fail to be noticed by the leadership of Brazilian football, inviting Mauro to the World Cup again. However, in Sweden, Ramos spent the entire tournament on the bench, winning the first world championship title in his career. The main pillars of the defense then were Hilderaldo Bellini and Orlando. Both are players of Vasco da Gama from Rio de Janeiro
. The following year, Mauro and the national team took part in the 1959 South American Championship in Argentina, where together with the team, he won "silver", losing only one point to the hosts, the Argentines. It was not until his last World Cup in 1962 in Chile that Mauro came to the status of a main player, playing in all six matches, he made a formidable defensive duo with compatriot Zózimo, while the defender was captain of the team at that tournament. During his career in the national team, which lasted 17 years, he played 28 matches for Brazil with no goals.

Valdir Pereira (8 October 1928 – 12 May 2001), was a former Brazilian football player. He has played for the Brazil national team. Together with Pelé, Vavá, Garrincha and Mário Zagallo, he formed the attack quintet of the Brazilian team that became world champions in 1958 and 1962. Considered as one of the greatest midfielders of all time. Didi was a very gifted playmaker known for his long balls and free kicks. He was the inventor of the folha seca ("dry leaf") with which he gave the ball such an effect that it seemed as if it would disappear over the goal but at the last moment disappeared between the posts like a dry leaf falling from the tree had fallen. He was nicknamed "the Ethiopian Prince" for the elegance and class he gave to the midfield of the teams he played for.
Early life
Didi was born in Campos dos Goytacazes, located 200 kilometers north of Rio de Janeiro. There he learned to play football in the street in barefoot matches. At the age of 14, Didi almost had to give up after he was injured and an infection developed on his right knee. It looked like his leg would have to be amputated, but Didi recovered after spending six months in a wheelchair. Two years later, he signed his first contract in his hometown with the club of the same name.
Club career
Didi started playing football for
Madureira in 1947. In 1949 he transferred to Fluminense, one of Rio's biggest clubs. There, Didi impressed, but in 1950 he was still too young to participate in the World Cup in his own country. That same year he was part of a representative team from Rio that opened the Maracanã against a team from São Paulo. In the game, Didi scored the first ever goal in one of the largest stadiums in the world. A year later he won the Rio de Janeiro State Championship with his club and the Copa Rio the following year. However, Didi ran into trouble at the time when Fluminense's arch-rival Botafogo, tried to get him in. The relationship between Fluminense and Didi deteriorated as a result, also because he was criticized after he left his wife and young daughter for the actress Guiomar Batista. Finally, in 1956, after seven years, Didi made the switch to Botafogo for two million cruzeiro, a record amount at the time
. At Botafogo, he immediately bonded with Nílton Santos and Garrincha, with whom he would celebrate the State Championship together a year later. In 1959, the playmaker made the move to Real Madrid , where he became the first black player in club history. Real were one of the best clubs in the world at the time, but Didi had a frustrating period there. Didi was unable to force a starting spot and ran into problems with Alfredo Di Stéfano , who did not want to share his star status. The Brazilian therefore decided to return to Botafogo after two seasons. With that club he again won the State Championship in 1961 and 1962. The playmaker went on to play for several other clubs before ending his active career in 1966.
International career
Didi made his debut for the Brazilian national team in 1952. Two years later he made his appearance at the World Cup in Switzerland. There, Brazil was sent home to Hungary in the quarter-finals after a match that would go down in history as the Battle of Bern. It was one of the most unsportsmanlike matches in World Cup history. Didi was left out for the Copa América 1956 along with Garrincha, Zózimo, Zizinho, Nílton Santos, Julinho, Castilho, Bauer and Pepé. He played during the Copa América in 1957 where Brazil finished second. In 1958 Didi had become one of the key figures of the Brazilian national team that traveled to the World Cup in Sweden with a revolutionary 4-2-4 formation. At the time, it was Didi who gave confidence to 17-year-old Pelé. The team eventually took home the title. After Brazil fell 1-0 behind Sweden in the final, Didi turned things around and went on to win 5-2. Didi was subsequently voted the best player of the World Cup.
Didi wanted to participate gor the 1962 FIFA World Cup but the Brazilian press complained that the 33-year-old playmaker would be too old for it. Didi countered: "it's the ball that has to do the work, not the player". Brazil again reached the final, beating Czechoslovakia 3-1. It was Didi's last international match.

Managerial career
After his active career, Didi was active as a trainer in Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Turkey and Saudi Arabia. Didi had his greatest success in 1970 when he guided Peru to the quarter-finals of the World Cup. It eventually lost to the later world champion Brazil. In addition, he won the double with Fenerbahçe in 1974 and managed to extend the national championship a year later.

Dino Sani (born 23 May, 1932) is a former Brazilian football player. He has played for Brazil national team. Right half-winger and playmaker, Sani was a true beacon of midfield, being gifted with a remarkable vision of the game, the result of his innate instinct, which allowed him to always identify the best placed man to direct his unmarked throws. He was known for his skill with the ball at his feet, his technique, intelligence in passing and creativity in setting up plays. In possession of great ball control, he was considered to be one of the greatest midfielders in São Paulo and Milan history and he is regarded as one of the best football players of all time. He was particularly skilled in fast and tight rallies, thus compensating for a certain basic togetherness. Far from being an individualist, he was a true team player.

Early life
He was born on May 23, 1932 in Sao Paulo to Gaetano Sani and Maria Gabrielli.
Club career
A pupil of the football school of the club "Palmeiras". He began his adult football career in 1949 in the main team of the same club. Gino Orlando began his career with him at Palmeiras. He then performed at the Antarctic Park, 15 Di Jau and Commercial (Sao Paulo) clubs.

With his game for the last team, he attracted the attention of the coaching staff of the club "Sao Paulo" , which he joined in 1956, repeating the path of his teammate Gino Orlando, who a year earlier moved to the club from Sao Paulo and achieved significant success. He played for the team from Sao Paulo for the next five seasons of his playing career. Most of his time with Sao Paulo, he was a key player for the team. As part of Sao Paulo, he was one of the team's top scorers, averaging 0.34 goals per game. In 1957 he won the Paulista League. In São Paulo, he played with Zizinho and Canhoteiro, and later became recognized one of the best midfielders in the club's history.
In 1959, Boca Juniors bought Dean's contract from Sao Paulo for $ 1 million, and the player became the sixth Brazilian in the Argentine club at the time (including Paulo Valentino).

In 1961, when Boca Juniors began to consider him a veteran, he was sold to Milan, and a few days later he made his debut in a Roso-Nero shirt in a match against Juventus, ousting the Englishman from challenging character, Jimmy Greaves. Since then, and until the end of the championship, in which Milan celebrated the "Scudetto" in the 1961/62 season, he came on the field several times. Considered the successor of Gunnar Gren, Sani with the Milan club also won the European Champions Cup in 1963. Playing for Milan, he also mostly played for the main team.
At the end of the 1963/64 season, he was forced to return to Brazil to recover from an illness that Dino began suffering from while performing in Italy. Sani signed a contract with Corinthians Paulista, for which he played during 1964–1966. During this time, he played twice as many matches as in "Milan", and also scored twice as many goals as in the shirt of the Italian club.

International career
In 1957 he made his debut in official matches as part of the Brazilian national team. During his career in the national team, which lasted 9 years, he played only 15 matches for the national team, scoring 1 goal (in addition, he played 9 matches in unofficial friendly matches and scored 3 goals).
As part of the national team he participated in the 1957 South American Championship in Peru, where he won silver with the team, the 1958 World Cup in Sweden (he played the first two matches in the tournament, then replaced by Zito), winning the title that year world champion, and the 1959 South American Championships in Argentina, where he won silver with the team.

During his performances in Italy, he received an invitation to the Italian national team to participate in the 1962 FIFA World Cup, but Dino refused, waiting for a call to the Brazilian national team. He was left out for the 1966 FIFA World Cup.
Managerial career
He began his coaching career, immediately after the end of the player's career, in 1969 at Corinthians, but the team was disqualified due to "doubtful" matches. His work was not very noticeable, as under his leadership the team won regional trophies, but the Brazilian federation was positive and on the eve of the 1970 World Cup he was offered to replace the disgraced coach Joao Soldane at the helm of the Brazilian national team. But due to friendly relations with the latter, Dino Sani refused this offer. Returning to football after a short break, in 1971, heading the coaching staff of the club "International". For three years in a row, he and his team won the championship, which he recalls was Dino's best experience in his coaching career. In 1975 he became the head coach of the Palmeiras team, coaching the team from Sao Paulo for only one year.
In 1978, he won the Uruguayan Championship with Peñarol, and then coached the Qatari national team, which had a salary of about sixty million lire a month and almost led it to the 1990 World Cup.

Later, in 1981, he headed the coaching staff of the club "Flamengo". In 1982 he accepted an offer to work at the Fluminense club. He left the team from Rio de Janeiro in 1982. For one year, starting in 1983, he was the head coach of the International team. In 1984 he was invited by the management of Boca Juniors to lead his team, with which he worked for one year.

During his coaching career, he also led the teams of Goiás and Coritiba. Currently, the last place of coaching was the club "Gremio", whose head coach was Dino Sani during 1991.
