Career[edit]

Born in Uberaba, Paulo Rodrigues began his career in the youth sectors at Nacional. He had spells at América-MG and Botafogo-SP, but it was in 1988 that he gained national relevance, being a highlight of Brazilian champion Bahia alongside Bobô, and winning the Silver Ball that season.[1][2][3][4] In 1993, he made history again by participating in the first J-League title, at Verdy Kawasaki (currently Tokyo Verdy). In April 2020, the player auctioned off the trophy he received at the Silver Ball in favor of the victims of COVID-19.[5]
