Ricardo Rogério de Brito, better known by his nickname Alemão (born November 22, 1961),[1] is a former Brazilian professional footballer who played as a defensive midfielder.[2] His nickname means German in the Portuguese language. A tenacious and physical yet technically gifted player, Alemão was a strong, consistent, hard-working, and versatile midfielder, who excelled in a holding role as either a defensive midfielder or deep-lying playmaker, due to his tactical intelligence, energy, tackling, and his ability to read the game, as well as his capacity to start attacking plays after winning back possession.[3][4][5][6][7][8]
Nickname
The nickname, "Alemão" ("the German"), was attributed to his blond hair and fair complexion, making him similar in appearance to the many German immigrants in Brazil.[8]

Club
Born in Lavras, Minas Gerais,[1] Alemão started his career playing for a Minas Gerais' club called Fabril in 1980.[9] In 1981, he moved to Botafogo, of Rio de Janeiro, where he stayed until 1987, winning the Bola de Prata award of Placar Magazine in 1985.[9] In 1987, and in 1988, he played for Atlético Madrid, of Spain,[10] scoring six goals in 35 games,[11] and won the EFE Trophy as best South American player and the La Liga Foreign Player of the Year in 1988.[9] Between 1988, and 1992, he played 93 games and scored nine goals for Napoli of Italy,[11] playing alongside star offensive players like Diego Maradona and Careca as a defensive foil.[10] With Napoli, he won the UEFA Cup in 1989, scoring a goal in the final, followed by the Serie A title and the Supercoppa Italiana in 1990.[12] In 1992, he signed with Atalanta of Italy, scoring two goals in 40 games, until he left the club in 1994.[11] In 1994, he returned to Brazil, playing 77 games and scoring two goals for São Paulo,[2] winning two international titles with the club in 1994, the Copa CONMEBOL, and the Recopa Sudamericana;[9] he remained with the club until 1996, when he moved to Volta Redonda and retired from football.[9]
