Doniéber Alexander Marangon (born 22 October 1979), known as Doni, is a Brazilian former footballer who played as a goalkeeper. He was born in Jundiaí, São Paulo.

He is the elder brother of João Paulo Fernando Marangon. Doni also holds an Italian passport. His parental family came from Veneto and his grandmother came from Mantua.[2]

Club career

Roma

Doni joined Roma on 30 August 2005, after Roma paid the buy-out fee of about US$18,000.[3] He signed a 1+3 year contract worth €300,000 in gross in the first year.[4]

With Roma, Doni at first was blocked from first team action by Italian U-21 international Gianluca Curci and was restricted to UEFA Cup games. However, after impressing in cup competition, he replaced Curci in goal for league games.

His contract was renewed on 13 April 2006, now worth €1.25 million a season (in gross).[5] In his second season with Roma, he became one of the best goalkeepers of the Serie A.[6] He won Coppa Italia twice in 2007 and 2008, and also finished as the runner-up of Serie A in 2007 and 2008.

On 11 April 2007, Doni conceded seven goals in a UEFA Champions League tie against Manchester United, with the game ending 7–1. The following season the two teams met again, but Doni was injured.

In May 2008, his contract was extended to June 2012. He would have earned a gross annual salary of about €4 million in average (from €3.8M in the first year to €4.3M in the last year)[7][8]

In the second half of the 2008–09 season, he lost his place to Artur after a 1–4 loss to Juventus on 21 March. He continued for the next 2 matches to be in the squad[9][10] but was not starting or even sitting on the bench. He then trained separately with injured players and visited the doctor for his knee in April 2009.[11]

In the 2009–10 season, the club continued to use Artur and then Júlio Sérgio as first choice, despite employed Claudio Ranieri to replace Luciano Spalletti. Doni was recovering from injury. In October 2009, he returned to the team for the match against A.C. Milan on 18 October but soon lost his place again to Júlio Sérgio.

After Vincenzo Montella replaced Ranieri as head coach in February 2011, Doni returned to starting XI in the second match in-charged by Montella, a 2–2 draw with Parma on 27 February.

Liverpool

Doni signed for Premier League club Liverpool on 15 July 2011 on free transfer. He was expected to act as a second-choice goalkeeper behind Pepe Reina.[12][13] As part of the deal, Roma paid Doni €1,500,000 net of tax,[14] roughly covering the wage difference between Roma and Liverpool's deal. Due to Reina's red card against Newcastle United in April 2012, he won a place in the starting lineup, becoming the first goalkeeper except Reina to play in a league game for Liverpool since Daniele Padelli on 13 May 2007.[citation needed] He made his Premier League debut for Liverpool on 7 April 2012 in a 1–1 draw against Aston Villa at Anfield.[15] In his next match, on 10 April, he received a red card and conceded a penalty against Blackburn Rovers. He was replaced by Brad Jones and subsequently received a suspension.[16] Doni would play his second full competitive 90-minutes in a 1–0 defeat to Fulham at Anfield. Doni made his fourth league appearance on the final day of the season in a 1–0 defeat to Swansea City.[17] In his first season at Anfield, Doni made a total of four appearances. [18] In the summer of 2012, new manager Brendan Rodgers allowed Doni to return to Brazil temporarily on personal leave.[19] He was still included in Liverpool's squad for the 2012–13 season. However, due to this personal leave, he missed out on the chance to play while first choice 'keeper Pepe Reina was injured. Again, in this instance Brad Jones played instead.

It was finally announced, upon leaving Liverpool, that Doni had suffered a heart attack during a routine medical in the summer of 2012. Doni explained that he was "unconscious for 25 seconds and almost went to the 'other side'". He was advised by professionals to never play football again.[20][21]

Botafogo

On 31 January 2013 Doni joined the Brazilian team Botafogo-SP (the club he started his career in) from Liverpool after not featuring in the team's starting XI since the final day of the 2011/2012 season.[22] On 12 August 2013, Doni retired from playing football due to heart problems.[23]

International career

Doni earned his first cap with the Brazilian national team against Turkey in Dortmund, Germany on 5 June 2007.

In the Copa America 2007, he was selected as Brazil's first choice keeper moments before their first match against Mexico, replacing Helton. His play in the tournament included two penalty saves in penalty kicks against Uruguay in the semi-finals, which sent Brazil to the final.[24] Brazil won the tournament with a 3–0 win over Argentina.

On 11 May 2010, it was announced that Doni would be part of the Brazilian squad which would compete at the World Cup in South Africa.

He retired from International Football on 1 February 2013 due to his previous cardiac problems.[25]
