Luís Filipe Madeira Caeiro Figo was born 4 November 1972 in Almada, Portugal. Figo is a professional Portuguese footballer. In his homeland Figo is considered by some second only to Eusebio as Portugal’s greatest player ever. He plays as a midfielder and winger, currently for Internazionale. Figo was Portuguese football’s original Golden Boy (a name which now belongs to Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo) and gained fame as the main footballer behind Portugal’s prominent Golden Generation that consisted of fellow legends like Rui Costa, and was the reason why the term came into use.
