Olberdam de Oliveira Serra (born 6 February 1985 in João Pessoa, Paraíba), known simply as Olberdam, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder.

Football career

After starting his professional career with lowly Mogi Mirim Esporte Clube, São Gonçalo Futebol Clube and Corinthians Alagoano, Olberdam moved abroad and joined Portuguese Primeira Liga club C.S. Marítimo in the summer of 2005, aged 20. He scored once in his first season, in a 2–0 home win over neighbours C.D. Nacional on 16 April 2006, but only appeared in eight league matches.

In the following three years Olberdam continued to be regularly used by the Madeira side, amassing a further 66 appearances and netting two goals. On 2 February 2010, however, he would be loaned to league leaders S.C. Braga until June, as the team had just lost to a hefty suspension another player in the position, compatriot Vandinho; he helped with three appearances for an eventual best-ever second place in the league.

In July 2010 Olberdam returned to his country, signing with Clube Atlético Paranaense on loan. In the following transfer window, however, he joined FC Rapid Bucureşti in Romania, in the same predicament.
