Jorge Manuel Almeida Gomes de Andrade, OIH (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈʒɔɾʒ(ɨ) ɐ̃ˈdɾad(ɨ)]; born 9 April 1978) is a former Portuguese footballer who played as a central defender, and the current manager of Clube Oriental de Lisboa.
After playing two years with Porto he went on to represent Deportivo (which would be his main club – 169 official appearances in five seasons) and Juventus, appearing rarely for the latter due to injury.
Andrade gained more than 50 caps for Portugal, representing the nation in one World Cup and one European Championship and helping it finish second in Euro 2004.
Born in Lisbon, Andrade made his professional debuts with hometown club C.F. Estrela da Amadora in 1997, helping it to two consecutive eighth Primeira Liga places.
He immediately caught the eye, and after that was on the move north to FC Porto, being the team's most used player in the 2001–02 UEFA Champions League by playing 12 times as it reached the second group phase in the competition.
After Portugal’s unsuccessful 2002 World Cup campaign, Andrade was acquired by Spain's Deportivo de La Coruña, in a move that cost the Galician side €12 million with the possibility of being increased to €13M (goalkeeper Nuno Espírito Santo was also part of the deal, for €3M). He appeared in only 11 La Liga games in his debut season, barred by César Martín and Noureddine Naybet, but was an undisputed first-choice when healthy in the following years.
