  1. Washington had a younger brother also named Geraldo (full name: Geraldo Cleofas Dias Alves), who was a hugely promising star midfielder for Flamengo in mid-70s, but sadly died after a surgery in August 1976 at the young age of 22. Geraldo had already played for Brazil in 1975 (Copa America) and 1976 (Copa do Atlântico).
