Patrick Marcos de Sousa Freitas (born 9 April 1999), simply known as Patrick, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a central defender for Novorizontino, on loan from Portuguesa.

Club career
Patrick was born in Ferraz de Vasconcelos, São Paulo, and joined Portuguesa's youth setup in 2018, after representing Flamengo-SP and EC São Bernardo. He made his senior debut with the former on 3 March 2019, coming on as a late substitute for Cesinha in a 3–0 Campeonato Paulista Série A2 away win over Taubaté.

Patrick scored his first senior goal on 24 March 2019, netting the opener in a 2–1 home win over Votuporanguense. A backup option in his first years, he became a starter in the 2021 Série D.

Patrick helped Lusa to win the 2022 Paulista A2 as a starter, being named the best defender of the competition. On 20 April 2022, he renewed his contract until August 2025, and agreed to a loan deal with Série C side ABC; his new club confirmed the deal two days later.

Back to Lusa for the 2023 season, Patrick was again a starter after recovering from an injury. On 10 April 2024, he was loaned to Série B side Novorizontino until the end of the year, with a buyout clause.
