Wellington Dias (born 11 October 1977), is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.

Career[edit]

Wellington Dias began his career at Flamengo, where he passed a test. However, he decided to return to his city because he missed his parents, starting his professional life at Caldas EC. He played for other clubs in the state of Goiás until joining Brasiliense in 2001, a club that gave him national recognition, being champion and top scorer of Brasileiro Série C and mainly for the runner-up campaign in the Copa do Brasil, which earned him harassment from Brazilian first division clubs.[1][2]

In 2006 he suffered a serious injury and was no longer able to play the football he had previously played, playing again for lesser clubs.[3]
