Biography
Washington Luiz de Paula (January 23, 1953 – February 15, 2010) was a Brazilian footballer. Born in Bauru, he was a standout youth player who was compared to Pelé after his performance for the Brazilian national youth team in a 1971 tournament in Cannes. His professional career did not match this early success, but he played for the Brazil national Olympic team in 1972, and for a number of professional teams including Corinthians and Guarani.
