1987

Fernando Lopes dos Santos Varela (born 26 November 1987) is a Cape Verdean professional footballer who plays mainly as a centre-back for Primeira Liga club Casa Pia.

Born in Cascais, Varela started playing professionally with G.D. Estoril Praia in the Segunda Liga, being loaned to lowly U.D. Rio Maior for one year during his spell.

2008

Portuguese-born, Varela opted to represent Cape Verde internationally, his debut coming in 2008.

2009

In January 2009 he moved to C.D. Trofense, as the northern club was playing for the first time in the Primeira Liga.

He managed to appear regularly during the season, but they were relegated.

2010

On 24 May 2010, he appeared in a friendly in Covilhã with Portugal – which were preparing for the FIFA World Cup in South Africa – playing the entire match as the minnows (ranked 117th) managed a 0–0 draw.

2011

In the summer of 2011, after two additional second-tier seasons with Trofense, Varela signed for C.D. Feirense, returned to the top flight after a 22-year absence.

2012

In the following campaign he played all league games as a starter, notably scoring twice against S.L. Benfica on 28 January 2012 (one in his own net) in a 1–2 loss where he also committed a penalty, and his team would again drop down a division.

Varela signed a three-year contract with Romanian side FC Vaslui on 29 May 2012.

On 3 September of the following year he joined FC Steaua București also from Liga I, after agreeing to a three-year deal for a €1.25 million transfer fee.

2013

The Blue Sharks were disqualified from the 2014 World Cup when it was revealed that Varela had played in a qualifying match against Tunisia, despite not completing a four-match suspension for a red card he had received against Equatorial Guinea on 24 March 2013.

That game was later rendered invalid by FIFA as a result of Equatorial Guinea fielding ineligible Emilio Nsue, but Varela's disciplinary record stood.
