Humberto Ramos (born 25 August 1949) is a Brazilian former professional footballer and manager, who played as a midfielder.
Dribbling central midfielder, Humberto Ramos was responsible for initiating the play for Dadá Maravilha's goal against Botafogo FR, in the final triangular of the 1971 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, which yielded the first national title in the club's history. He made 110 appearances for Atlético Mineiro, scoring 12 goals.[1] He also had spells at Grêmio, where he played 75 matches and scored 11 goals, América de Natal, Vila Nova, Inter de Limeira, Colorado and Valeriodoce.[2] [3]
Humberto Ramos started his career in an unexpected way. Working as a director at Atlético Mineiro, he took over the club after the dismissal of Darío Pereyra, and finished as runner-up in the 1999 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A. Ramos, by the way, blames the referee Márcio Rezende de Freitas for the loss of the title, by not marking a penalty committed by the right-back of Corinthians, Indio.[4] After this curious episode, Ramos worked on some other teams such as Avaí and Joinville. He was also a sports commentator until he retired from football.[5]
