Tueba Menayane (born 13 March 1963), known simply as Tueba, is a retired Congolese footballer who played as a right midfielder.
He played most of his professional career in Portugal, appearing for six different clubs and amassing Primeira Liga totals of 169 games and eight goals over the course of seven seasons.
Football career
Tueba was born in Kinshasa, Zaire. After arriving in Portugal at age 23 from AS Vita Club, he went on to spend the following decade in the country, starting out with first division club S.L. Benfica and helping it to three national accolades during his two-year spell although he never was an undisputed starter.[1]
Released in the 1988 summer, after the Reds lost the final of the European Cup to PSV Eindhoven – he was not picked for the decisive game's squad – Tueba consolidated himself in the Portuguese top flight for the following years, successively representing Vitória de Setúbal, F.C. Tirsense, S.C. Farense and Gil Vicente FC. In 1993 he moved to the second level with Leixões SC, then continued to play in the country until the age of 37, his final years being spent in amateur football.
Tueba represented Zaire at the 1992 Africa Cup of Nations in Senegal, scoring one goal for the eventual quarterfinalists.
