Vasco César Freire de Seabra (born 15 September 1983) is a Portuguese professional football manager, currently in charge of Primeira Liga club Arouca.
Club career
[edit]Born in Paços de Ferreira, Seabra played youth football for F.C. Paços de Ferreira as a forward and a central midfielder, retiring at the age of 18.[2] After assistant spells, he started working as a manager in his own right in early 2013, with amateurs F.C. Lixa in the Porto Football Association.[2]
Seabra was appointed at Paços de Ferreira in late November 2016, replacing Carlos Pinto.[3] He won his first Primeira Liga game 2–1 against Boavista F.C. on 5 December,[4] and ended the season in 13th.[5] He was dismissed on 23 October 2017 after a 6–1 away loss to FC Porto, with the team in that same position and eliminated from the Taça de Portugal.[6]
On 24 January 2018, Seabra returned to management with F.C. Famalicão in LigaPro, on a deal until the end of the following campaign.[7] However, in June that year, he was replaced by Sérgio Vieira with a year left on his contract.[8]
Seabra was hired on a year-long contract at C.D. Mafra on 31 May 2019, tasked with keeping them in the second division.[9] Having finished in fourth, and also taken the club to the last 16 of the domestic cup by eliminating top-tier Moreirense F.C. away from home, he resigned.[10]
In July 2020, Seabra returned to the top flight at Boavista F.C. on a two-year deal.[11] He left on 8 December, having won once and drawn five of his nine matches.[12] A month later, he signed for Moreirense until June 2022.[13] His contract was terminated a year early following an eighth-place finish, and he was replaced by João Henriques.[14]
On 13 November 2021, Seabra became C.S. Marítimo's second manager of the season after taking over from Julio Velázquez, with the side being placed second-bottom.[15] He was himself relieved of his duties the following 5 September, after five losses in as many games to kickstart 2022–23.[16]
Seabra was appointed at top-tier G.D. Estoril Praia on 25 September 2023,[17] replacing Álvaro Pacheco who had been sacked the day before.[18] On 3 November, he took the last-placed team to a 1–0 league win at Porto,[19] repeating the feat the following month to oust the same opposition from the group stage of the Taça da Liga with a 3–1 home victory;[20] he finished runner-up in the latter competition, beating S.L. Benfica on penalties in the semi-finals but losing the decisive match against S.C. Braga in the same fashion.[21]
On 29 June 2024, Seabra left Estoril by mutual consent.[22]
