Born 1993. Rodrigo Longo Freitas is a Brazilian association football player.

Rodrigo Longo Freitas (born 13 March 1993), commonly known as Digão, is a Brazilian professional former footballer who played as a right-back.

Career Born in Rio de Janeiro, Digão joined Flamengo's youth setup in 2001, aged only eight. In 2011, after Rafael Galhardo's call-up to Brazil under-20s, he was promoted to the main squad by manager Vanderlei Luxemburgo and acted mainly as a backup to Léo Moura.

Digão made his senior debut on 21 January 2012, in a 4–0 Campeonato Carioca home routing of Bonsucesso. On 18 June of the following year he renewed his contract, signing until the end of 2014.
