When Middlesbrough made a move for Osvaldo - better known as Juninho - he was considered Brazil's rising star and had just put on a man of the match performance in a friendly against England.

Flair, technique, passion and a huge heart were always on show when Juninho played for Middlesbrough. Sadly, as a team they couldn't deal with the expectations and Juninho openly shared the fans' pain when they were relegated in 1997, having also lost two cup finals.
