Derivaldo Beserra Cavalcante, known as Dedé, (born 31 May 1987) is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Treze.

Career

Dedé was born in Fortaleza. In his early career with Ferroviário, he was loaned out to a number of clubs, playing in Campeonato Brasileiro Série B with Bahia and Fortaleza. He left Ferroviário to join Santa Cruz in 2010, and then Icasa later that year.[1][2]

He went on to represent Bahia de Feira and Horizonte in Campeonato Brasileiro Série D in 2011 and 2012 respectively, and was part of the Campinense team which won the 2013 Copa do Nordeste before returning to Santa Cruz for a second spell which saw the club get promotion from 2013 Campeonato Brasileiro Série C[3][4]

In 2014 he signed for Chapecoense, playing 19 times in 2014 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A.[5] In 2015, despite Chapecoense wanting him to stay, he signed for Ponte Preta on a one-year deal.[5] By May the same year he had moved to ABC for the 2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B season.[6]

Dedé returned to Santa Cruz for a third spell at the start of 2016.[4] In July 2016 he was loaned to Cuiabá for the remainder of the season.[7] In 2017 he was contracted by Treze for Campeonato Paraibano, after which he signed for Portuguesa for 2017 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.[8] He returned to Treze for the 2018 season, playing in the Paraibano, 2018 Copa do Nordeste and most significantly, gaining promotion from 2018 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.[9] In the promotion-winning game, Dedé scored the winning goal against Caxias, and his celebrations in front of the Caxias fans. In the ensuing brawl, five players were sent off.[10]

Dedé signed for Sampaio Corrêa in 2019,[11] and returned to Treze again in 2020.[12]
