Rômulo Cabral Pereira Pinto (born 2 November 1991 in Rio de Janeiro), commonly known as Rômulo (Brazilian Portuguese: [ˈʁõmulu]), is a Brazilian footballer who currently plays for Hammarby IF in the Swedish Allsvenskan.
Career
Rômulo started his senior career in the Brazilian lower divisions. He represented Friburguense in the Campeonato Carioca during two different spells, making 74 appearances and scoring 21 goals in total.
He moved abroad for the first time in March 2016 by signing a two year-deal with the Swedish club Hammarby IF in Allsvenskan. After a tough start to his newly found career in Europe, Rômulo scored a hat-trick on match day 26 against local rivals Djurgården in a spectacular derby fixture. His brace helped to secure a 4-2 win for the side. Rômulo’s involvement in the victory was later awarded as the “achievement of the year” by the club’s supporters.
