Ayrton Moreira (31 December 1917 – 22 November 1975), sometimes called Aírton Moreira, was a Brazilian football manager and former player who played as a central defender.

Career

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Moreira made his senior debut with Bonsucesso before being sold to Atlético Mineiro in 1939. He subsequently played for Sport Club Aeroporto, Botafogo and Náutico before retiring in the 1940s.[1]

Moreira began his career with Metalusina in 1946, before being named manager of Bangu for the 1948 season.[2] In 1949, he also had a short stint at Atlético Mineiro before working at local sides Sport Juiz de Fora, Villa Nova and Tupi.

Moreira was in charge of América Mineiro in 1956, before taking over Cruzeiro in the following year. He returned to Atlético for a brief period in 1959, and subsequently worked at Cruzeiro in several roles.

In 1964, after the club dismissed Marão, Moreira was named manager of Cruzeiro's first team. He led the club to the 1966 Taça Brasil win over Pelé's Santos, but had to step down in November 1967 due to illness.

In 1968, Moreira was named Atlético Mineiro manager for a third period. He was subsequently in charge of Bela Vista-MG, Valeriodoce and Vila Nova[3] before returning to Cruzeiro in 1975, but now as an assistant.

In November 1975, Moreira was hospitalized due to a hypertension which compromised his kidneys. He died on 22 November due to a intracerebral hemorrhage at the Hospital Felício Rocho in Belo Horizonte.[1]
