Rodrigo Souza Santos (born 7 August 2002), commonly known as Alencar, is a Brazilian footballer who currently plays as a midfielder for Retrô.

Career

Born in Itabuna in the state of Bahia, Alencar began his career with Associação Desportiva Barra [pt], before joining Retrô, where he was named the best midfielder in the Pernambuco Under-20 Championship in 2020. These impressive performances at youth level prompted Série A side Flamengo to sign him on loan for the entirety of the 2021 season.

After turning professional with Retrô the following season, Alencar was loaned to Série C side Paysandu in August 2023. Despite initially being thrust into the first team, he only managed four appearances for Paysandu after suffering an injury, before returning to Retrô.

Style of play

A defensive midfielder, Alencar describes himself as an "intense" player in both marking and attacking, stating that he likes to "play freely".
