About Bruno Cortez

Bruno Cortês Barbosa (born 11 March 1987), known as Bruno Cortez, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a left back. Cortez changed his surname spelling from Cortês to Cortez, without circumflex diacritic and with a final z ending after being asked to do so by the Nova Iguaçu club president. After leaving his youth club, Cortez decided to keep the spelling as an artistic name. Cortez's first professional contract was with Qatari club Al-Shahaniya in 2007. Cortez played his first game for the club on 22 May 2011, at Estádio Benedito Teixeira, in São José do Rio Preto, on a 2–0 defeat against Palmeiras.
