Eduardo Quaresma, born on 2 March 2002 (age 24), is a Portuguese central defender whose senior career has been shaped chiefly at Sporting CP. His current market value is around £15.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Sporting have been the main thread throughout his development, but his 2021-2022 loan spell at Tondela gave him a proper run of senior league football. He made 25 league appearances there and scored twice, still his most productive league season in front of goal.
Back at Sporting, Quaresma has built a substantial body of work rather than a neat breakthrough story. Across six seasons with the club, he has made 70 league appearances and scored four league goals. In 2026-2027, he has made three Liga Portugal appearances for Sporting.
Quaresma’s career remains centred on Sporting CP, with the Tondela spell serving as the useful early detour. He is still a developing defender, but already with a fair amount of league football behind him.
