Alex Miranda
Midfielder (1976-1987)
A product of Panvel SC, Alex Miranda was soon poached by Salgaocar, but it was only a matter of time before he decided to settle down at Dempo. He suffered an unfortunate leg fracture while doing duty for Salgaocar – ironically against Dempo – which kept him out for more than a year, but once he had regained full fitness, he got nto his groove. Originally a striker, Miranda flowered into a bright withdrawn forward at his new club with peerless displays that justified the No 10 jersey which he wore with distinction while also winning laurels as captain.
