Edgar Carvalho Figueira Marcelino (born September 10, 1984 in Coimbra) is a Portuguese footballer currently playing for APOP Kinyras Peyias FC in Cyprus, mainly as a right midfielder.

[edit] Football career

Marcelino started his career at Sporting Clube de Portugal, but never represented the main squad, going on to have consecutive loan stints. He made his professional debuts with F.C. Penafiel, first appearing in a 1–1 home draw against Rio Ave FC. He was an important offensive element throughout the campaign, as Penafiel retained its top level status.

In 2005–06, Marcelino was loaned to Dutch League's RBC Roosendaal, which dropped down a level at the season's end. Subsequently released by Sporting, he joined Vitória de Guimarães in the second division, but left in January 2007 to Cyprus outfit AC Omonia, where he failed to establish himself, despite being a player of relative talent.

Marcelino moved countries again in 2008–09, moving to Spanish third level team Racing de Ferrol. However, in January 2009, he returned to Cyprus, with APOP Kinyras Peyias FC, joining several other compatriots in the squad.
