Francisco Gomes

Francisco Tomás Aguiar Gomes (born 14 April 2004), also known as Xiko, is a Portuguese footballer who plays as a right winger for Marítimo.

Career Gomes was born in Funchal on the island of Madeira to Danny, who was then an attacking midfielder for Marítimo. When their father went to Russia to play for Zenit Saint Petersburg, Gomes and his identical twin brother Bernardo played for the youth team. The boys were involved in a controversy in September 2011 when their father scored a UEFA Champions League goal against Portuguese club Porto and celebrated by imitating a urinating dog; he explained that it was because he was going to buy them a puppy.

At age 17 in August 2021, the brothers signed professional contracts for Marítimo. On 13 December 2022, Gomes made his first-team debut as a last-minute substitute in a 5–0 Taça da Liga defeat away to Sporting CP, another of his father's previous clubs. After turning 19, the brothers, who were alternating between the under-23 and reserve teams, extended their contract to 2027. On 3 August 2025, Gomes scored the last goal of a 3–0 win over island rivals Nacional in the Troféu Cidade do Funchal, at the Estádio do Marítimo.
