Ze Elias

Elias has been enjoying his retirement out of the limelight

A Brazilian journeyman, Ze Elias may have only been at Inter for two years, but he made an impact in the 1998 UEFA Cup final. Starting his career in his homeland with Corinthians, he soon made a move to Germany with Bayer Leverkusen before joining Inter Milan in 1997.

His career may not have been spectacular, but he will be able to look back in years to come and be proud of what he has achieved both in Brazil and across Europe. Since retiring in 2009, Elias has been enjoying his retirement out of the limelight and supporting his brother Rubinho, who has spent most of his career in Italy as a goalkeeper.
