'''Nuno Jorge Pereira da Silva Valente'''
He played professionally in Portugal and England for [[Sporting CP|Sporting]], [[Portimonense S.C.|Portimonense]], [[C.S. Marítimo|Marítimo]], [[U.D. Leiria|União
Valente represented [[Portugal national football team|Portugal]] at international level, participating at [[UEFA Euro 2004|Euro 2004]] (where Portugal became runners-up) and the [[2006 FIFA World Cup|2006 World Cup]].

Born in [[Lisbon]], Valente began his career at [[Segunda Liga|second division]] club [[Portimonense S.C.|Portimonense]] on loan from [[Sporting CP]]. However, he found first-team chances limited at the former side and despite success in helping win the [[Taça de Portugal|Portuguese Cup]] in 1995, he was loaned again in the [[1996–97 Primeira Liga|1996–97 season]] to [[C.S. Marítimo|Marítimo]], also in the [[Primeira Liga]].
A young [[José Mourinho]] recognized Valente's talent and brought him to [[U.D. Leiria|União Leiria]] in the summer of 1999, where he spent three years as an undisputed starter. In 2002, when Mourinho left to join [[FC Porto|Porto]], he and teammate [[Derlei]] were the club's first signings. The former repaid the coach's faith with some good displays as Porto romped to victory in the national championship and defeated [[Celtic F.C.|Celtic]] 3–2 in the [[2002–03 UEFA Cup|UEFA Cup]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/3043029.stm|title=Porto end Celtic's Uefa dream|publisher=[[BBC Sport]]|date=21 May 2003|access-date=26 May 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/3047207.stm|title=Uefa Cup final player ratings|publisher=BBC Sport|date=21 May 2003|access-date=3 October 2017}}</ref>
