Dodô (footballer, born 2001)

Vinicius Rodrigues Adelino dos Santos (born 15 June 2001), commonly known as Dodô or sometimes as Dodozinho, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a midfielder for Goiás, on loan from Coimbra.

Club career
Born in Angra dos Reis, Rio de Janeiro, Dodô played for the youth sides of Santos and Belgian club Genk before returning to Brazil and finishing his formation with Oeste and Ferroviária. He made his senior debut on loan to Barretos, playing in the 2021 Campeonato Paulista Série A3.

Dodô subsequently joined Coimbra, but was initially assigned to the under-20 team. He was one of the club's nine players loaned out to Villa Nova for the 2022 Campeonato Mineiro, but did not play.

Back to Coimbra, he played regularly for the main squad in the 2022 Campeonato Mineiro Módulo II, as the club suffered relegation, and with the B-team in the year's Campeonato Mineiro Segunda Divisão, as they finished second. He then returned to Villa Nova for the 2023 Campeonato Mineiro, also on loan.

On 21 April 2023, Dodô was loaned to Série A side Goiás until the end of the year, with a buyout clause. He made his club – and top tier – debut on 7 May, coming on as a late substitute for Julián Palacios in a 5–0 home loss to Palmeiras.
