He had five children, Tereza dos Santos, Nadir dos Santos, Manuel Garrincha dos Santos Júnior, Neném dos Santos and Ulf Lindberg.

Garrincha is widely considered as one of the greatest football players of all time. He had a successful career with the Brazilian national team, winning two FIFA World Cups in 1958 and 1962. Garrincha was known for his incredible dribbling skills, speed, and ability to score incredible goals. He played as a right winger and spent the majority of his club career with Botafogo in Rio de Janeiro, where he won several state championships.

However, despite his success on the field, Garrincha had a troubled personal life. He struggled with alcoholism and had numerous extramarital affairs throughout his life. He died of cirrhosis of the liver at the age of 49.
