Antônio Monfrini Neto (born 23 June 1950), better known as Manfrini, is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.

Career

Born in the Mooca neighborhood, São Paulo, Manfrini began his career in the amateurs at CA Parque da Mooca. As a professional, he began his career at Ponte Preta, a club he played for from 1967 to 1972. He had a brief spell at Palmeiras, without being able to establish himself, and in 1973 he joined Fluminense, where he won the Rio de Janeiro championship in 1973 and 1975. He also played for Botafogo, Ituano and Moto Club. Although his surname was called "Monfrini", a graphic error in the documentation transformed him into Manfrini, which became his nickname in football circles.
