Hugo Filipe da Silva Cunha (18 February 1977 – 25 June 2005) was a Portuguese footballer who played as a midfielder.

Over the course of six seasons, he amassed Primeira Liga totals of 125 games and seven goals. He died at age 28, due to cardiac arrest.

Club career

Born in Barreiro, Setúbal District, Cunha began his career at local club F.C. Barreirense, as a youth and an early senior. He made his professional debut with modest S.C. Campomaiorense in the Primeira Liga, moving to Vitória de Guimarães after one sole season.[1]

After four years in Minho being regularly used by the first team, although rarely as a starter,[2][3] Cunha signed with fellow top-division U.D. Leiria for 2004–05.[4] In the following off-season, he died suddenly during a football match played with friends in Montemor-o-Novo, aged 28.[5][6]
