Club career[edit]
Palmeiro was born in Arronches, Portalegre District. During eight years of his senior career he played with Primeira Liga side S.L. Benfica, leaving in 1961 after the emergence of Eusébio. Over the course of nine seasons, he amassed competition totals of 133 games and 44 goals – he also represented Atlético Clube de Portugal in the top level of Portuguese football – and won three national championships and as many Portuguese Cups with his main club.
Palmeiro was the first player to score a goal at the original Estádio da Luz, and was also the first Benfica player to do so in the European Cup, in a match against Sevilla FC in the 1957–58 campaign.[2]
International career[edit]
On 3 June 1956, Palmeiro earned the first of three caps for Portugal, in a friendly with Spain. He scored all of his team's goals, in a 3–1 win in Lisbon.[3]
