Club career

Born in Henstedt-Ulzburg, Germany while his father Nando was representing Hamburger SV, Pinho joined Bangu's youth setup in 2010, aged already 19. He made his debuts as a senior for the club in the following year's Copa Rio, but suffered a serious knee injury which took him out for six months.[1] In 2013, he was loaned to Cabofriense until the end of the year, but was recalled in September.[2]

On 30 April 2014 Pinho was loaned to Madureira until December.[3] In December, he opted not to renew his contract,[4] and signed permanently for Madura in the following month.[5]

On 4 June 2015, after being the second top goalscorer of 2015 Campeonato Carioca, Pinho signed a four-year deal with Primeira Liga side S.C. Braga.[6] He made his debut on the competition on 16 August, starting in a 2–1 home win against C.D. Nacional.

On 29 June 2017, Rodrigo Pinho signed a four years contract with Marítimo [7]
