INFO: Rithely, an idol and one of the great midfielders in the recent history of Sport Recife (where he played in 365 games and scored 33 goals), consolidated his playing style as a holding midfielder with good ball distribution and a strong presence in the opponent's penalty area.

Here are the main characteristics of Rithely's playing style:

Tackling and Strong Marking: Rithely stood out for his precise tackles and high defensive concentration.

Goalscoring Midfielder/Attacking Midfielder: Unlike a purely defensive midfielder, Rithely scored 33 goals for Sport, being one of the midfielders with the most goals in the club's history. He liked surprises in the penalty area (surprise elements).

Quality Passing and Distribution: He possessed good passing quality to initiate plays, not limiting himself to simply disrupting the opponent's play.

Versatility: Although his main position is midfielder (defensive or central), he also played as a right-back on some occasions.

"Box-to-Box" (Area-to-area midfielder): At his peak with Sport, he was a player who covered a large part of the field, dispossessing opponents in defense and arriving in the opponent's penalty area.
