Gilberto Valdenésio Fortunato (born 11 July 1987) is a Brazilian professional footballer who played as a forward for Brazilian team Iporá.

Club career

Early career

Gilberto previously played with Guarani, Bandeirante and Hải Phòng.

Hải Phòng

In 2013, Gilberto was transferred to Hải Phòng by signing a one-year deal.[1] He scored the first goal for the club on 6 April 2013 in a 0–2 away win against Đà Nẵng.[2] With Hải Phòng, he played 21 matches and scored seven times.

Tirana

In January 2014, Tirana was risking the relegation and the donors brought several players on trial, including Gilberto.[3] He successfully passed the trial, and on 27 January, he penned an initial six-month contract with an option to extend it for one year.[4][5]

Gilberto made his competitive debut for Tirana 1 February in the goalless draw against Kastrioti in the Albanian Superliga matchday 17, entering in the second half.[6] Six days later, in his first Tirana derby against Partizani, Gilberto scored his maiden Tirana goal, the winner with an overhead kick in the 77th minute, returning the team to the winning ways after 9 consecutive matches.[7][8] The loss caused the resignation of Partizani's coach, Hasan Lika.[9] During the 0–1 win against Bylis at Adush Muça Stadium on 16 February,[10] Gilberto suffered a stomach injury and was substituted in the 42nd minute following a dangerous play from the opposition players.[11]

Gilberto returned to the scoresheet on 23 February by netting the temporary equalizer against Besa in an eventual 2–1 home win, leading Tirana to their third consecutive win.[12] He continued to be a vital member in Tirana's bid to escape relegation, assisting Ndikumana's goal against Flamurtar for a 1–1 draw on 2 March and scoring a brace in the 3–1 home win over Kukësi the following week, removing Tirana from the last position in the standing.[13] He was praised by the manager Gugash Magani following the match against Kukësi, who said that Gilberto was "the best player of the team".[14] Gilberto himself stated that his aim was to score at last 10 goals until the end of the season.[15]

After his good performances since joining the club, Gilberto begun negotiations for a new contract;[16] however, he added that he was not sure about staying in Albania and the main reason were the incidents occurred in the match against Flamurtari.[17] Gilberto suffered a groin strain injury in the 2–0 win over Laçi on 29 March, which forced him to be substituted.[18][19] Following the examinations, it was confirmed that Gilberto would be sidelined for one month.

On 8 April, Gilberto agreed a contract extension, signing for another season, with the new deal including a significant wage rise.[20] However, only two days later, after receiving an offer from an unknown Malaysian team, which was several times bigger than the amount of renewal with Tirana, Gilberto asked a transfer request from Tirana, in order to sign in Malaysia. He immediately asked to leave the club, and strengthened it by not appearing in the training session on 9 April.[21] Gilberto did not leave, however, and returned in action on 26 April by starting in the 2–1 home win against Vllaznia.[22]

Gilberto returned to the scoresheet on 4 May by netting his 5th of the campaign in the 2–2 away draw against Flamurtari; this result sealed Tirana's spot in the top flight for another season.[23] In an interview with daily newspaper Panorama Sport, Gilberto stated that he'll go to the club which offers more money for him despite having signed a contract renewal with Tirana early on.[24] He left Tirana after not finding a way to improve his contract. Following his departure, Gilberto stated that he did not request any raise, adding that Tirana offered him $95,000, which was later reduced, which according to him terminated the cooperation between parties.[25]

Flamurtari Vlorë

On 11 August 2014, Gilberto completed a transfer to fellow Albanian Superliga side Flamurtari Vlorë as a free agent, signing a two-year contract worth $90,000 $ a season.[26] During his presentation, he stated that despite being a target of several clubs such as Kukësi, Skënderbeu dhe Partizani, he joined Flamurtari for financial reasons. He also mentioned his former side Tirana, saying that the club has problems which are not solved,[27] which prompted Tirana to deny his claims on their Facebook page.[28]

Gilberto made his competitive debut on 17 August 2014 in the 2014 Albanian Supercup against Skënderbeu Korçë, playing the second half in an eventual 1–0 loss at Qemal Stafa Stadium.[29] His league debut occurred six days later in the opening matchday against Teuta Durrës, scoring a goal and being named Man of the Match in a 2–1 home win.[30] His next goal came on 27 September in the home match against Laçi which finished in a 1–1 draw valid for the 6th week.[31]

On 4 October, during the match against Partizani, Gilberto was injured and replaced by fellow striker Arbër Abilaliaj in the 62nd minute as the match finished in a goalless draw.[32] Following the examinations, it was confirmed that the injury was minior and Gilberto was likely to miss the following match against Skënderbeu on 17 October.[33] He was included for the match, but started from the bench,[34] appearing in the 74th minute as the match finished in a 1–1 draw.[35]

On 21 December, Gilberto played the 17 minutes of the 0–1 home loss against title contenders Kukësi, the last match of 2014.[36] Flamurtari ended the first part of the season 16 points away from the first position held by Kukësi and 14 points away from European spots. In personal terms, Gilberto managed to score only twice in 12 appearances, which nine of them were as starter. Before the match with Kukësi, Gilberto had agreed by consensus with the club to break the contract, to return to Brazil, where according to his agent, Alban Kashari, Gilberto has opened a business in his native country.[37] However, if the striker would choose to play for another club in Albania, then he should pay Flamurtari the clause of 100 million lek.[37] His departure was also confirmed Flamurtari's new coach Ernestino Ramella.[38]

Two days after the match against Kukësi, Gilberto reopened the opportunity to play in Albania, after the interest shown by his former side Tirana, stating that the capital club must pay the clause to Flamurtari in order to negotiate with him.[39] He described his time in Vlorë as positive and also added that division of the team brought negative results during the first part of the season.[39]

Gwangju

On 14 January 2015, after officially leaving Flamurtari, Gilberto moved in South Korea where he signed a contract with K League Classic side Gwangju FC, worth $120,000.[40] He made his debut in second tier of Korean football on 6 March 2015 against Incheon United, scoring a goal in the 32nd minute which was later attribute to Kim Dae-joong as an owngoal.[41] Gilberto opened his scoring account for Gwangju on 15 April, heading a cross from the left in an eventual 2–1 away loss to Jeju United.[42]

His experience in Korea was short-lived as he managed to play only in six matches, scoring once in the process. This made him request a return to Albania, where he was a target of his former club Tirana.[43] Gilberto stated that he was willing to lower his wage to return to Tirana.[44]

Gilberto made his return debut with Tirana on 23 August 2015 in team's opening match of the season against newcomers of Tërbuni Pukë; his shot turned into a rebound for Masato Fukui's goal as Tirana won 2–1.[47] In the first leg of 2015–16 Albanian Cup first round against Erzeni Shijak, Gilberto missed a penalty kick but Tirana managed to win both legs with the aggregate 3–0.[48] He scored his first goals for Tirana in the first leg of second round against Kastrioti Krujë to help Tirana get a 1–5 win.[49] On 3 November, following the league match against Kukësi in which he appeared in the last 24 minutes, Gilberto left Tirana after ending his contract by mutual consent.[50] He finished his second spell with Tirana by making 11 appearances, including 8 in league, collecting 500 minutes, scoring twice, both of them in cup. In an interview, Gilberto said that he will never come back to play with an Albanian team again, saying that they [Albanian teams] have a lot of problems.[51]
