Ricardo Cavalcante Mendes (born September 4, 1989), or simply Ricardinho, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a striker or left winger. He is currently a free agent.

Club career

Górnik Łęczna

In February 2011, he was loaned to Górnik Łęczna on a half-year deal.[1]

Sheriff Tiraspol

Ricardinho joined Sheriff Tiraspol on 1 July 2013, for a fee of 350,000 euros.[2][3] During the first half of the 2014–15 Moldovan National Division season, Ricardinho scored 11 goals in 14 games, but, due to the withdrawal of Veris Chișinău and Costuleni from the league, Ricardinho's goals against these teams were canceled. As a result, 2 goals were stripped off from Ricardinho's total goal tally.[4][5]

Al-Sharjah loan

On 21 January 2016, Ricardinho moved to UAE Arabian Gulf League side Al-Sharjah on loan,[6] returning to Sheriff Tiraspol on 5 July 2016.[7]

Red Star Belgrade

On 16 June 2017, Ricardinho signed a two-year deal with Red Star Belgrade, choosing number 89 on his jersey.[8] He made his Red Star debut in a 3–0 win against Floriana.[9] He stayed in the club for only half of a season and played 10 matches and scored 1 goal in total. Ricardinho was released in December 2017 after being injured for most of the season.[10]

Tosno

On 11 January 2018, Ricardinho signed a 1.5-year contract with the Russian Premier League club FC Tosno.[11] He came off the bench as Tosno won the 2017–18 Russian Cup final against FC Avangard Kursk on 9 May 2018 in the Volgograd Arena.[12]
