Pedro Miguel Pina Eugénio (born 26 June 1990) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a right winger or a right-back for Kazakhstan Premier League club Tobol.

He spent most of his career abroad, making 143 appearances and scoring 31 goals in the Bulgarian top flight for four clubs, including three spells at Beroe. He also played in Turkey, Kazakhstan and Saudi Arabia, and had a brief stint in his country's second tier with Farense.

Club career

[edit]

Eugénio was born in Faro, Algarve. As a youth player he represented four clubs, starting his development with S.C. Olhanense and finishing it with S.L. Benfica.[2] He made his senior debut in 2009 with União Desportiva Messinense in the regional championships, then switched to Algarve neighbours Louletano D.C. in the third division for the following season.

In the 2011–12 campaign, Eugénio represented S.C. Farense in the fourth tier.[3] On 30 July 2012, after a short trial period, he joined Bulgarian side PFC Beroe Stara Zagora on a three-year deal. He appeared in his first match as a professional on 11 August, playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–0 home win against POFC Botev Vratsa.

Eugénio returned to his homeland and Farense in January 2014, with the team now in the Segunda Liga.[4] In the summer, he returned to Bulgaria with FC Haskovo.

On 9 November 2014, Eugénio scored after dribbling two opponents in a 90-meter run, but in a 2–4 home loss to PFC CSKA Sofia.[5] He signed for FC Vereya in July 2016, arriving from fellow First Professional Football League team PFC Cherno More Varna.[6]

Eugénio returned to Beroe on 16 June 2017.[7] This was the most prolific season of his career, coming third in goalscorers with 16 in 31 games; this included a hat-trick on 17 February in a 4–1 victory at Cherno More.[8] At its conclusion, he moved to the Turkish TFF First League after agreeing to a two-year contract at Altay S.K. for an undisclosed fee.[9] He left by mutual consent and returned to Beroe in January 2019;[10] that July, Altay were put under a transfer embargo by FIFA until they settled debts of around 1 million Turkish lira with Eugénio and Ivan Ivanov.[11]

Eugénio competed in the Kazakhstan Premier League the following years, representing FC Zhetysu, FC Taraz and FC Astana and being voted player of the 2020 season at the first of those clubs.[12][13] On 25 January 2023, hours after leaving the latter, the free agent joined Al-Adalah FC in the Saudi Professional League.[14][15]

Eugénio's father, Rui, was also a footballer and a defender.[16]
