Like Raimundo, Miranda has worked across the globe; working in Turkey, Spain, the Middle East, Australia, and has held roles within both the Sporting Lisbon and Benfica Academy departments in Portugal.

Whilst at Benfica U19s, Miranda coached and developed the likes of Ederson and Jan Oblak as teenagers and it was here where he first worked alongside our new Assistant Coach, Sergio Raimundo.

Miranda then joined the Central Coast Mariners as Goalkeeping Coach in summer 2022. The Portuguese coach has demonstrated a good eye for spotting and developing natural young talent, having coached former Mariners ‘keeper Anthony Pavlešić for a season before he was sold to Bayern Munich on a three-year deal at the age of just 17.

The 37-year-old completes Montgomery’s coaching staff with David Gray continuing as First Team Coach following an important stint as Caretaker Manager.
