Picture Caneira (left) in his spell on loan at Reggina (Allsport)

MARCO CANEIRA

Position: Defender
Born: 09.02.79
Club: Inter Milan

This talented young defender is currently on a year's loan back in his homeland with Benfica, although he remains an Inter Milan player.

He moved to Inter with Paulo Costa from Portuguese side Alverca, but the two were almost immediately loaned out to Reggina to gain experience of the Italian game.

Since his time at Reggina, he has returned to Benfica owing to a lack of opportunities at the San Siro, and is coming to the end of a one-year spell in his homeland.

His club future remains unclear, but if he can recreate the form he showed as an Under-20 international then he should have a bright future on the world stage.
