Luis Gustavo da Silva Machado Duarte (born 2 October 2001), known as Luis Mandaca or just Mandaca, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a midfielder for Juventude.
Personal life
Born in João Pessoa, Paraíba, Mandaca earned his nickname due to his home neighbourhood, Mandacaru. During the beginning of his career, he was taken to training by his mother on a bicycle.[1]
Career
Mandaca began his career with CSP, making his first team debut with the club in the 2019 Campeonato Paraibano. After a short loan period at São Paulo Crystal, he moved to the under-20 side of Corinthians on 11 September 2020, initially on loan.[2]
On 25 March 2021, Mandaca signed a permanent contract with Timão, after the club bought 70% of his economic rights for a fee of R$ 800,000.[3] He made his first team debut for the club on 9 May, starting and scoring the winner in a 2–1 Campeonato Paulista home win over Novorizontino.[4]
Mandaca subsequently returned to the youth setup, before being loaned out to Série B side Londrina on 30 March 2022.[5] On 14 December, he moved to fellow league team Juventude also in a temporary deal.[6]
On 12 January 2024, after being a starter in Ju's promotion to the Série A, Mandaca signed a permanent two-year contract with the club.[7]
