João Correia (footballer, born 1911)

Correia arrived at Benfica in 1930, but only made his debut on 28 June 1931, against Porto, in the final of the Campeonato de Portugal.

[1] In the following season, he partnered with Jorge Tavares and Manuel de Oliveira in the midfield, helping Benfica reach the semi-finals of the Campeonato de Portugal, playing all of the games.

[2][3] A year later, with Albino replacing Tavares, he played 21 games for Benfica, winning the Campeonato de Lisboa.

[1][6] In 1935–36, back on the first team with Albino and Gaspar Pinto, he helped the club win the Primeira Liga.

[7][8] He remained with Benfica until 1939, but with negligent influence, as Raúl Baptista, Joaquim Alcobia and Francisco Ferreira all overtook him in the pecking order.
