Diego Luiz Dedoné, sometimes known as just Diego (born September 12, 1985), is a Brazilian former footballer who played as a striker.
Career
Having started his career at União Bandeirante, Dedoné stood out especially for Toledo in the 2007 Copa Paraná campaign, which earned him a three-month stint at Athletico Paranaense, where he never entered the field once.[1]
On 21 May 2010, playing for Guaratinguetá in the 2–1 victory over Vila Nova, Dedoné suffered a violent kick to the head from teammate Everton while he attempted to block the ball from crossing the goal-line.[2] Dedoné remained hospitalized until May 28th and stopped his career during one year.[3]
The player resumed his career in May 2011 and later played for Toledo, Cianorte, Oeste, among others. In an interview, Dedoné admitted to being afraid of competing for balls with his head, due to a pin that he had to have implanted due to a fracture. He ended his career in 2016 at Velo Clube.[4]
