Henrique Sereno Fonseca (born 18 May 1985), known as Sereno, is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for German club 1. FSV Mainz 05 as a central defender.

Club career

Guimarães

Born in Elvas, Alto Alentejo, Sereno joined Vitória de Guimarães for the 2005–06 season from hometown's O Elvas CAD, and served a loan stint during the latter part of that season at lowly F.C. Famalicão.

In the 2007–08 campaign he, alongside Brazilian Pedro Geromel, formed a solid defensive partnership as Vitória came from the second division into a final third Primeira Liga position. On 9 March 2008 he scored a rare goal, in a 2–0 home win against Sporting Clube de Portugal.[1]

Sereno spent the vast majority of 2008–09 in the sidelines after having undergone surgery to both knees, only appearing in six games. After beginning the following campaign again in the starting XI (nine matches, one goal), he eventually terminated his contract and, on 1 February 2010, signed with Real Valladolid in Spain for five months.[2] He made his club debut on 20 March, playing the entire 2–0 win at Deportivo de La Coruña.

Porto

In late June 2010, after Valladolid's relegation in La Liga, Sereno returned to his country, signing with FC Porto on a free transfer.[3] On 20 August 2011, deemed surplus to requirements as practically all Portuguese players, he joined German club 1. FC Köln on a season-long loan deal.[4]

Sereno made his Bundesliga debut on 27 August 2011, playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–3 away success over Hamburger SV.[5] He featured regularly during the campaign, but his team suffered relegation.

Sereno returned to Valladolid and Spain's top flight for the 2012–13 season, still under contract with Porto.[6]

International career

Sereno made his debut for Portugal on 10 June 2013, playing the second half of a 1–0 friendly win with Croatia in Geneva.[7]
