How to reference in LATEX text without parentheses

I'm working on my CBT using ShareLatex and a template from my university. I have already set up the file .bib and I can perform citations using \cite{} . But this way it always generates for example:

segundo (Fulano, 2012)

What command should I use to generate references like this:

segundo Fulano (2012)

There are cases where using the first format makes more sense, but for the cohesion of the text sometimes the second case seems more appropriate.

Thank you!

You can use variations of \cite , in your case I believe that \citet{} (text quote) would solve, something like:

\citet{Erdos65} --> Erdős et al. (1965)

There are other variations, you can check out the wiki .

EDIT: You must import the package natbib , using:

\usepackage{natbib}
