Roberto Pimenta Vinagre Filho

Roberto Pimenta Vinagre Filho (born 4 April 1992), commonly known as Betinho, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Super League club Arema.

Club career Born in Apeú, Castanhal, Pará, Betinho started his career with Remo in 2010. He only became a regular starter for the side during the 2012 Campeonato Paraense, but left the club in May of that year as his contract expired, and agreed to a deal with Tombense.

Betinho initially agreed to a loan deal with Série B side América de Natal in August 2012, but the deal later collapsed due to an injury, and he returned to Tombense for the 2013 Campeonato Mineiro. After being a regular starter for the club, loans to Madureira, América Mineiro, Mirassol, Atlético Goianiense, Guarani and Figueirense followed, where he was regularly used for most sides.

On 4 December 2019, still owned by Tombense, Betinho joined Série A side Sport Recife on loan for the campaign. He made his top tier debut at the age of 28 on 8 August 2020, starting in a 3–2 home win against Ceará.
