At age of 13, his parents Luis de Souza Borges and María Alice Guimarães were forced to leave Brazil and go to Costa Rica due to they were working with World Health Organization.[2] Alexandre is the youngest son of that relationship, having four siblings: Carlos, Guillermo, and Ana.[3] When Alexandre arrived to Costa Rica, he had many problems to communicate with people because of the language difference. However, he started to learn the Spanish language and was making new friends so new opportunities were gave him in activities. A young Guimarães began studying in Saint Francis College located in Moravia city. He represented his school team in disciplines of football and basketball, and also for two to three years he was part of local club in Barrio Escalante, playing different matches. In 1977, Alexandre traveled to México where he studied Physical education, career that he continued at University of Costa Rica. Upon his return, friends told him to be included in a soccer team where he can show his skills. During an internal championship played at the university, by influence of Walter Taylor, Alexandre was signed by Durpanel San Blas that was about to compete in the second division of Costa Rica. He made his debut on 25 March 1979 in an away 5–1 defeat against Pérez Zeledón.[4] On 22 April he scored his first two goals in the league over Puriscal (5–4).[5] He ended the season as the top scorer with 16 goals. Despite the good numbers reached in the season, Durpanel was condemned to relegation after ending in last place. Alexandre combined football with basketball and played for Asturias de Puntarenas.[6]

On 22 January 1980, it was announced that Guimarães had signed a two-year contract with Costa Rican club Municipal Puntarenas.[7] He made his debut on 13 April, playing 90 minutes of a 0–1 win over San Carlos.[8] On 11 May, Alexandre scored his first goal which Puntarenas won 6–0 over Alajuelense.[9] His club qualified to second round, but it was not enough to advance to the final. Guimarães scored 12 goals in 38 matches and finished third in scoring tables, three goals behind Carlos Torres and one goal behind Gerardo Solano.
The following season, Alexandre completed 15 matches and scored 7 goals. His skills as midfielder and striker made him an efficient player for the club.

Guimarães had 16 appearances and scored 2 goals. He also participated in the first stage of the 1989 CONCACAF Championship, that served as qualifier for the 1990 World Cup. He was a member of the Costa Rican team during the World Cup. After being a substitute in the first match against Scotland (1–0 victory), Guimarães would see action in the last 12 minutes against Brazil (1–0 loss), replacing Juan Cayasso. This was the first time that a footballer born in Brazil played against the representative of his country of origin in a World Cup. He then repeated his variant role in the game that closed the group stage against Sweden (1–2 win), as well as the round of 16 against Czechoslovakia (4–1 loss).
Managerial career
After his professional football retirement at the age of 32, he ventured into the field as a color commentator on Canal 7, and it was in this way that he would be preparing himself as a head coach.
