Club career[edit]
Early years[edit]
Filipe Luís was born in Jaraguá do Sul, Santa Catarina. Coming from Figueirense Futebol Clube he had his first taste of football in Europe with AFC Ajax in 2004, spending one full season there. On 18 August 2005 he was signed by C.A. Rentistas in Uruguay, but was quickly acquired by Real Madrid on loan.[1]
Filipe Luís would spent most of the season, however, with its B-team, in Segunda División.
Deportivo[edit]
Filipe in action for Deportivo
In 2006 Filipe Luís was loaned again by Rentistas, this time to Deportivo de La Coruña, also in Spain,[2] with a buy-out option of €2.2 million. He did not have many opportunities in his first season, but his loan was extended for a further year with the same buy-out clause; in 2007–08, after first-choice Joan Capdevila's departure to Villarreal CF, he went on to establish himself as first-choice left-back, being a key player for the team.
On 10 June 2008, Deportivo made effective the buy-out clause and Filipe Luís signed a five-year contract.[3] During his first season as a Depor player, he was the only outfield player in La Liga to appear in all 38 games, scoring twice.
On 23 January 2010, immediately after netting the opener in a league game against Athletic Bilbao (eventual 3–1 home win), Filipe Luís sustained an horrific injury to his right fibula, after opposing goalkeeper Gorka Iraizoz landed on his leg; again, he had played all the matches and minutes during the season, and Deportivo stood fourth in the table.[4] Amazingly, he returned to action after less than four months, appearing in the second half of the club's 1–0 home win against RCD Mallorca – and being involved in the play which led to Riki's goal; the Galicians finished 10th.
Atlético Madrid[edit]
On 23 July 2010 Filipe Luís signed for five years with Atlético Madrid for an undisclosed fee,[5][6] reported to have reached €12[7] or 13.5 million.[8] His official debut came on 26 September at home against Real Zaragoza, and he set up compatriot Diego Costa for the game's only goal, receiving Man of the match accolades.[9]
In his first season, Filipe Luís constantly fought for first-choice status with youth graduate Antonio López. On 10 April 2011 he scored his first goal for Atlético, in a 3–0 home win against Real Sociedad.[10]
International career[edit]
Through his father, Moisés Kasmirski, Filipe Luís was eligible to play for Poland.[11] On 7 August 2009, however, he was called up by Brazil for the first time, replacing injured Marcelo for a friendly against Estonia; he did not leave the bench in the 1–0 away success, on the 12th.
Filipe Luís made his debut for the Seleção in a 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Venezuela, on 15 October 2009.[12]
