Teka (futsal player)
Portuguese futsal player
César André Costa Dias (born 7 July 1991), known as Teka, is a Portuguese futsal player who plays for Benfica as a winger.
Career
Born in Amadora, he started competing in futsal at Presa Casal Rato, representing them for two seasons, before joining Sporting CP at age 16.
In the summer of 2010, Teka was tested by Paulo Fernandes in the preseason trainings, signing a one-year deal on 3 September 2010. The 20-year-old renewed his contract on 29 July 2011, and helped the club win a league and cup double.
After sustaining an ACL knee injury in November 2012, Teka was loaned out for the 2013-14 season to SL Olivais. On 18 June 2014, he joined Fundão, which had just won its first Portuguese Cup, a month earlier.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Teka (futsal player)” as portuguese futsal player. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as portuguese futsal player. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Chronology provides the most reliable spine for this subject; interpretation should follow only after identities and dates are secure. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 30, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q5065414. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1991, 2010, 2011 and 2012.
Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
