Club Career
Born in ItaberÃ, Brazil, Reinaldo plays as a striker and started his professional football career at Brazilian club América Mineiro in 2004, where he became a key player and the club's leading goal scorer. Later that season he trialed with Dutch club Feyenoord for two months until he was signed by Corinthians Alagoano.
In his first year for Corinthians, Reinaldo scored 18 goals and helped them advance to the second stage of the league. While in Australia, A-League side Queensland Roar had been struggling for goals all season and opted to buy a player on a loan rather than a transfer as the window was closed. Even with exciting goal scoring product Alex Brosque, Queensland lacked something in front of goal.
