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

Football career

After starting his professional career with lowly outfits Mogi Mirim Esporte Clube, São Gonçalo Futebol Clube and Corinthians Alagoano, Olberdam moved abroad and joined Portuguese first division side C.S. Marítimo in the summer of 2005, aged 20. He would score 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 seasons, Olberdam continued to be regularly used by the Madeiran club, amassing a further 66 league appearances, and netting twice. On 2 February 2010, however, he would be loaned to then league leaders Sporting Clube de 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.
