GENERAL INTEREST
The former Flamengo winger sounded like one of River’s possible reinforcements, but ended up choosing a new destination. His numbers and his news.
His name excited the fans. His testimonials about his desire to play for River and to be led by Marcelo Gallardo further fueled that dream. What Argentine team would not want to have a Brazilian side of selection and hierarchy? Much more in the case of the Millionaire, who after the departure of Gonzalo Montiel to Sevilla had not managed to replace him with a footballer who reached his level of excellence.
Beyond desire and illusion, in reality Rodinei was never close to the Millionaire. It is that the right forward marker, in addition to being free and being able to negotiate his pass directly with the club, asked for an unpayable contract for Argentine soccer. His was left in a survey and some contacts with his representative. His arrival at the Greatest One was never on the way.
After hearing several offers, including the one from Flamengo, who insisted until the last moment to renew his contract with the club, the experienced Rodinei decided to emigrate to Greek football. At the beginning of December 2022 he was presented as a new reinforcement of Olympiacos from Greece. He signed a contract for three seasons, until December 2025.
Its actuality and its numbers
Rodinei Marcelo de Almeida made his debut with the Olympiacos shirt on January 3, 2023, in the 2-0 victory against Ionilos de Nicaea in the Greek Super League. So far this year he has played a total of 18 games, in which he accumulates 1494 minutes on the field. He still hasn’t scored goals, but he did give an assist. He has 5 yellow cards and no expulsions. After overcoming a muscle injury, he returned a few weeks ago and started last Sunday in the 3-1 defeat against AEK.
