Urubatão Calvo Nunes (31 March 1931 – 24 September 2010), simply known as Urubatão, was a Brazilian footballer and manager. Mainly a defensive midfielder, he could also play as a central defender.
Urubatão had his playing career mainly associated with Santos. As a manager, he worked mostly in the São Paulo state, notably managing América-SP four times.
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Urubatão joined the youth setup of Bonsucesso in 1947. He signed his first professional contract in 1950, and moved to Santos in 1954.[1]
Urubatão moved abroad in 1961, signing for Club América. He returned to his home country, and represented Jabaquara and Ponte Preta before retiring in 1965, aged 34.[1] [2]
Urubatão played one match for the Brazil national football team, a 1–2 Roca Cup loss against Argentina at the Maracanã Stadium on 7 July 1957.
After retiring Urubatão became a manager, with his first Série A side being Fortaleza in 1974 and 1976. He returned to Santos in 1977, coaching the club in 26 matches.[3]
Urubatão was subsequently in charge of a number of clubs, notably managing América-SP on five occasions,[4] Portuguesa, Sport Recife, Londrina (where he won the 1981 Campeonato Paranaense),[5] Goiás and Coritiba,[6] but mainly worked in the São Paulo state.
Urubatão died on 24 September 2010, aged 77, due to a brain tumor.[3]
