António Henriques Fonseca de Jesus Oliveira (born 8 June 1958) is a retired Portuguese professional footballer who played as a sweeper.
Born in Moita, Setúbal District, Oliveira made his Primeira Liga debuts at already 24, with C.S. Marítimo, after several seasons in the second division with G.D. Fabril (under two different denominations). Even though the Madeira side was relegated from the top level at the end of the 1982–83 campaign, he was immediately bought by S.L. Benfica.
With the Lisbon-based club, Oliveira started in two out of his four seasons, helping it to two leagues and three domestic cups. He subsequently returned to Marítimo, where he would play until 1990.
Oliveira then moved to another team in the top flight, Aveiro's S.C. Beira-Mar, and retired at the end of 1993–94 at the age of 36 having amassed top flight totals of 352 games and 14 goals.
Oliveira earned nine caps for Portugal, his debut coming on 8 June 1983 – the day of his 25th birthday – in a 0–4 friendly loss to Brazil in Coimbra. He was a member of the team that competed in the 1986 FIFA World Cup in Mexico, being an unused substitute as they exited in the group stage.
