Artur Filipe Bernardes Moreira (born 18 February 1984), known simply as Artur, is a Portuguese former footballer who played as an attacking midfielder.

He amassed Primeira Liga totals of 187 matches and 13 goals over nine seasons, at the service of Beira-Mar, Marítimo and Arouca. He also played professionally in Ukraine, with Chornomorets.

Club career[edit]

Born in Cacia, Aveiro, Artur joined S.C. Beira-Mar as a 16-year-old. He made his Primeira Liga debut with the local club on 12 December 2004 in a 1–3 home loss against Moreirense F.C. where he came on as a late substitute,[2] one of just three appearances during the relegation-ending season.

In the 2009–10 campaign, Artur scored eight goals to help the team return to the top division as champions under Leonardo Jardim.[3][4] The following two, he totalled a further nine.

On 1 January 2013, following a very brief spell in the Ukrainian Premier League with FC Chornomorets Odesa, Artur was loaned to C.S. Marítimo of the Portuguese top tier.[5] On 9 June 2014, he signed a permanent two-year contract at F.C. Arouca of the same league,[6] scoring his only goal for the latter side on 2 April 2016 in a 3–2 home victory over Académica de Coimbra.[7]

Artur returned to Beira-Mar aged 33, with the club now in the regional championships.[8]
