Adalberto Kretzer (19 March 1948 – 24 August 2024), better known as Mickey, was a Brazilian professional footballer who played as a forward.[1] [2] [3] [4]
Formed at Joinville-based Caxias, became a hero at Fluminense, when he was featured in the final games of the 1970 Torneio Roberto Gomes Pedrosa. The nickname "Mickey" came from the size of his ears. He was called "the peace and love scorer", as he celebrated goals by making a "V" with his fingers.[5]
Mickey lived in the city of Balneário Camboriú, where he worked as a real estate agent until he retired.
Mickey died in Camboriú, Santa Catarina, on 24 August 2024, at the age of 76.[6]
