Excerpt: Ailton Goncalves da Silva (born 19 July 1973 in Mogeiro, Paraiba), usually known simply as Ailton, is a Brazilian football striker. Ailton's career began in Brazil, and he played in his homeland with Mogi Mirim EC, Santa Cruz FC and Guarani FC. He then moved to UANL Tigres in Mexico, which made way to a 1998-99 move to SV Werder Bremen in Germany. He had some difficulties in his first season, managing only two league goals, but developed into a strong service provider. Werder Bremen won the DFB-Pokal in 1999. However, Ailton did not take part in the final, which was won on penalties against Bayern Munich.

Having failed to find himself a club in January 2006, Ailton had undertaken an escape attempt toward Brazil, but was stopped at the airport by Be ikta ' interim manager Mehmet Eksi. However, because he had not found a new club during the winter, he returned to Istanbul and faced his old team Werder Bremen in the Efes Cup, scoring a hat trick for Be ikta . He returned to Germany on loan to Hamburger SV in January 2006, but broke his jaw in only his second appearance for the club - an away game against Hannover 96 - and missed most of the remaining season.
