He spent the vast majority of his professional career in Portugal, mainly with Vitória de Guimarães where he arrived at almost 30.
Football career
Roberto was born in Linhares, Espírito Santo. During his career he played almost exclusively in Portugal, spending most of his early years in the second division, representing F.C. Maia, Moreirense F.C. and Académica de Coimbra, with which he first arrived in the Primeira Liga, with no impact.
After another slow year, with C.F. Estrela da Amadora, Roberto returned to the second level with G.D. Chaves, F.C. Marco and Varzim SC. In January 2008, after solid performances for the latter, he signed a two-and-a-half year contract with top flight club Vitória SC, still being a relatively important attacking unit – 14 matches, two goals – as it finished third only one year after promoting.
After two more top level seasons with Vitória being used regularly (and averaging six league goals in the process), 32-year-old Roberto joined Asteras Tripoli F.C. in Greece, signing for one year. In March 2011, however, he moved teams and countries again, transferring to Chinese Super League side Beijing Guoan FC.
