João Ramos do Nascimento (2 October 1917 – 16 November 1996) was a Brazilian football attacking centre forward player nicknamed Dondinho, and was the father, mentor and trainer of Brazil legend Pelé. During his own playing career, Dondinho played for a number of small clubs including and had an opportunity to play for Atlético Mineiro, but didn't make an impression. He managed to become a prolific scorer for Bauru, with whom he won the Campeonato do Interior in 1946.
