Jorge de Amorim Campos (born 17 August 1964), better known as Jorginho, is a Brazilian professional football manager and former player. A quick, technically gifted, and hard-working attacking right back with good crossing ability, Jorginho is regarded as one of the best full-backs of his generation, and as one of the greatest Brazilian defenders of all time. He played in his native country for five different clubs, and also spent six years in Germany with Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich and three in Japan with Kashima Antlers; at international level, he was part of the Brazilian team that won the 1994 World Cup.
