Luis Maximiano

Updated: Aug 19

Luis Maximiano, born in Celeiros on January 5, 1999, is a Portughese professional footballer who plays as goalkeeper.


Luis Maximiano had a difficult year last season. Goalkeeper, 23, the Portuguese player was one of the best goalkeepers in the Liga in 2021-22 even if his club Granada were relegated. Carlo Ancelotti spoke very highly of both him and Gila in an August 2022 interview with the Corriere dello Sport. Before Granada, Maximiano played for Sporting Lisbon.


In 2022 he debuted in Lazio’s first home game but was sent off after just 6 minutes for saving a ball with his hands outside the penalty box. This mistake heavily conditioned his entire season as he was replaced in goal by Ivan Provedel and used only for the Coppa Italia and the Conference League. He made just six appearances in 2022-23.


In August 2023 he was loaned to Almeria for a year with a buyout obligation. Despite the club's relegation, Almeria activated the buyout and he joined the Spanish club permanently.
