Biography
Nuno Miguel Gomes Bentes Lampreia (born 27 September 1978), known as Gomes, is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a defender.
Football career
Gomes was born in Lisbon. An unsuccessful youth graduate from Sporting Clube de Portugal's famed youth system, he made his professional debuts with F.C. Felgueiras, moving in January 2001 to S.C. Campomaiorense in what would be his first Primeira Liga experience, with relegation.
Gomes then returned for the following seven seasons to the second division, with G.D. Chaves (two years) and Varzim SC. At the end of 2008–09, in which he scored seven league goals for the latter side, he had an unsuccessful trial with Luton Town in the Football League Two, but eventually signed with U.D. Leiria which had freshly returned to the second level.
After no official appearances for Leiria in the 2009–10 campaign, Gomes was released and joined second tier club S.C. Covilhã. He retired at the age of 35, after two years in the Cypriot Second Division with as many teams.
