Nilton dos Santos Terroso (born: 13 September 1979) is a Portuguese former footballer who played as a midfielder, and is a coach.
Early life
Terroso was born in France and grew up in Prince George, British Columbia, Canada. He represented the Canadian national team at three age-group levels.[1]
Playing career
Having moved to Portugal still in his formative years, Terroso never competed in higher than the Portuguese Second Division as a senior. He had two spells at S.C. Lourinhanense (a Sporting CP farm team, where he played alongside Simão Sabrosa), and also represented Clube Atlético Riachense.[2]
Coaching career
In 2007, Terroso joined Cardiff City as youth team fitness coach. Two years later, he was appointed assistant manager of their under-18 side, and worked with them for two years.[3]
Starting in 2010, Terroso acted as fitness coach to the Welsh under-17s for one year. Subsequently, he joined Malky Mackay's staff at Cardiff City's first team in the English Championship, still being his assistant when the club promoted to the Premier League at the end of the 2012–13 season.[4][5][6]
In June 2014, Terroso was named head coach of Cardiff's under-21 team.[7][8][9][3] At the end of the campaign, he left.
On 1 March 2016, eleven years after he last set foot in the country,[2] Terroso returned to Portugal and was appointed at Atlético Clube de Portugal.[10] After not being able to prevent relegation,[11] he left.
Terroso signed as manager of S.C. Olhanense from the Campeonato de Portugal on 17 November 2017, succeeding Bruno Saraiva.[12][13]
Personal life
Terroso was a qualified UEFA B licence coach, having completed a degree in football coaching and performance plus sports science.[1][14]
