Vozinha granted shirt name exemption by Chile FA
The Chilean Football Federation (ANFP) grants an exemption to allow Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha to wear his nickname on his shirt after signing for Colo Colo.
Chilean Football Federation permits Cape Verdean goalkeeper Vozinha to don his nickname on Colo Colo's uniform. The 40-year-old, who recently signed a six-month deal, previously played under his legal name Josimar Jose Evora Dias per league guidelines. However, Colo Colo secured permission to use "Vozinha" - which means "little granny" in Portuguese - as his shirt name. Vozinha, a cult hero following his nation's World Cup debut, now aims to celebrate the moniker throughout his career.
