Oreco (born 13 June 1922) is recorded as a Brazilian football player who represented the Brazil national team. He is known in historical listings by his single-name moniker, a common practice among Brazilian players of the 20th century. Publicly available details about his club affiliations and exact playing position are limited in many sources.

Overview

Players known only by a nickname or single name—like Oreco—often appear unevenly in surviving match reports and databases. What is clear from national team records is that Oreco reached a level of recognition sufficient to be capped by Brazil, which places him among a select group of professional footballers of his era.

Career and role

Contemporary summaries list Oreco as a member of the Brazil national squad, but comprehensive statistics such as total caps, goals, club history or primary field position are not consistently documented across public sources. That scarcity is not uncommon for players active in earlier decades when record-keeping and media coverage were less exhaustive than today.

Historical context

Oreco’s career belongs to a period when Brazilian football was developing the styles and institutions that led to later international success. During the mid-20th century, many players combined regional club play with intermittent national team call-ups. Understanding Oreco’s place in this history benefits from examining broader trends in Brazilian football of the time.
