Arsénio Rodrigues Jardim (1 July 1949 – 4 July 2020), known as Seninho, was a Portuguese professional footballer who played as a right winger.

Club career

Seninho was born in Sá da Bandeira, Portuguese Angola. In his country, he only played with FC Porto,[2] making his Primeira Liga debut in the 1969–70 season, which he ended with 18 games and six goals to help his team to the ninth position.[3] He won the only national championship of his career with the club in 1978, contributing 29 matches and four goals to the feat.[4]

Seninho and Porto reached the third round of the 1977–78 European Cup Winners' Cup.[2] In the second, on 2 November 1977, he scored twice in a 5–2 away loss against Manchester United, with the tie being won 6–5 on aggregate.[5]

Subsequently, aged 29, Seninho moved to the United States where he remained until his retirement, playing five years with the New York Cosmos and two with the Chicago Sting and winning the North American Soccer League with both sides – three titles with the former.[2]

International career

Seninho won four caps for Portugal in two years. His debut came on 7 April 1976, in a 3–1 friendly loss to Italy.[6]
