Career

[edit]

With just 1.75 m in height, Ari started his career playing on the line, but still in amateur football, where he played in the Caju neighborhood, he ended up adapting to the goalkeeper position. He began his professional career at Bonsucesso in 1950, and played for the club for four seasons. He arrived at Flamengo in 1955, where he refused to play wearing gloves, and was state champion that year. He made a total of 90 appearances for the club.[1] His last club was America, where he became a hero in 1960 by holding off Fluminense's attack in the state final. He played until 1966 when he retired from football. He worked in public welfare until 1977, when he suffered a stroke and died.[2]
