Dirceu Wiggers de Oliveira Filho (born 5 January 1988), simply known as Dirceu, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a centre back for Portuguese club U.D. Vilafranquense.
Club career Dirceu was born in Ibaiti, Paraná. A Coritiba youth graduate, he made his debut as a senior in a derby against Atlético Paranaense in 2008 Campeonato Paranaense.
On 30 December 2008 Dirceu renewed his contract with Coxa, being definitely promoted to the main squad. A defensive midfielder, he was converted into a central defender during the 2009 campaign.
