Renivaldo Pereira de Jesus (born 19 February 1974), known as Pena, is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a striker.
Club career
[edit]Pena was born in Vitória da Conquista, Bahia. After playing with modest clubs in his country he had his first taste of European football in 1998, but only lasted a few months with Grasshopper Club Zürich, moving then to SE Palmeiras.[1]
In 2000, Pena signed for FC Porto, where he was the top scorer in the Primeira Liga in his first season with 22 goals[2][3] while also adding the Taça de Portugal.[4] After falling out with coach Octávio Machado he was loaned to RC Strasbourg Alsace in France, where he failed to settle;[5] two other loans ensued, and the player experienced some success at both S.C. Braga and C.S. Marítimo.[6]
Released by Porto in June 2005, Pena returned to Brazil. After a spell with Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas he saw out his career with modest sides, retiring in 2011 at the age of 37.[7]
Personal life
[edit]Pena's son, Pablo, was also a footballer and a forward.[8][9]
