André Luís Gomes Simões (Portuguese pronunciation: [ɐ̃ˈdɾɛ siˈmõȷ̃ʃ]; born 16 December 1989) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Primeira Liga club Famalicão.

Club career

Portugal

Born in Matosinhos, Simões played with three clubs as a youth, including FC Porto from ages 8 to 14. He first appeared as a senior for Padroense FC, competing two seasons in the third division and one in the fourth.

In the summer of 2011, Simões signed with C.D. Santa Clara of the Segunda Liga.[2] He played 39 games and scored once[3] in his second year, helping the Azores team finish in 11th position.

Simões joined fellow league side Moreirense F.C. in late June 2013,[4] helping to a return to the Primeira Liga after one year[5] by contributing two goals[6][7] and nearly 2,800 minutes of action. He made his debut in the Portuguese top flight on 17 August 2014, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 away win against C.D. Nacional.[8]

AEK Athens

On 30 January 2015, before the campaign was over, Simões agreed to a two-year contract with AEK Athens F.C. which was made effective on 1 July.[9] On 19 March 2016, he agreed to an extension until 30 June 2019, with a buy-out clause of €7.5 million.[10] On 10 December of that year, he scored his first goal in a 4–0 home victory over Levadiakos F.C. in the Super League Greece.[11]

On 24 August 2017, Simões helped his team defeat Club Brugge KV in the second leg of the play-off round of the UEFA Europa League, netting twice and winning a penalty in a 3–0 home win.[12] On 26 November 2018, however, following a league defeat to Panetolikos FC, AEK owner Dimitris Melissanidis engaged in a heated conversation with three players, ostracising Vasilis Lampropoulos, Simões and Anastasios Bakasetas from the team; in his press-conference ahead of the upcoming UEFA Champions League game against AFC Ajax, head coach Marinos Ouzounidis all but confirmed that the trio had ceased to be part of his plans.[13]
