Nuno Alexandre Teixeira Sociedade (born 6 January 1979 in Ponta Delgada, Azores) is a Portuguese footballer who plays for Santiago Futebol Clube mainly as a left midfielder.
Football career
Being able to appear as either a midfielder or a defender on the left flank, Sociedade played most of his professional career with local C.D. Santa Clara, amassing nearly 200 official appearances with the Azores club and also being eventually awarded captaincy. His only Primeira Liga experience arrived in the 2002–03 season, but he failed to appear in the league – only six presences as an unused substitute – as the side was also relegated after ranking in 16th position.
In the 2010 summer, after just four second division games in the campaign, 31-year-old Sociedade left Santa Clara and signed for Santiago Futebol Clube, an amateur team in the island of São Miguel, in his birth region.
