Club career
After beginning his career in the youth ranks of lowly S.C. Campomaiorense, Rolando finished his football formation with Lisbon's C.F. Os Belenenses, which he joined at nearly 18. In his first division debut, on 28 August 2004, he played 90 minutes and scored a goal in a 3–0 home win against C.S. Marítimo; he went on to become an essential defensive figure onwards, appearing in all 30 matches in 2007–08, as the club finished in eighth place.

On 15 April 2008, F.C. Porto confirmed that Rolando had agreed to part ways with Belenenses and join them on a four-year contract.[1][2] In his first season, he quickly beat competition from veteran Pedro Emanuel, partnering Bruno Alves in the centre.

International career
Although born in Cape Verde, Rolando moved to Portugal at age of 14 and became a naturalized citizen in 2006, immediately starting playing for the nation's U-21s, for whom he appeared at the 2007 European Championship.

On 11 February 2009, Rolando was called to the squad of full but did not make his debut, in a friendly match with Finland, in Faro (1–0 win). He was selected for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, but did not leave the bench.

    we obviously need another decent centre back...as when two of our centrebacks get injured we go to a 19 year old...i think it makes sense for us to grab another CB...and I trust football italia...when there are people presenting links, rooted in goal.com on here, its a joke for Bryone, to suggest the usual suspects bringing this up....I mean for fucks sake, we have a thread in this very forum for Rooney, who would never come to us, in out current climate.

    If you wish to comment on the rumour and idea, wicked...if you want to mock the rumour, and presenter of the rumour...why not just avoid posting...fucking dweebs...im reminded all of a sudden, of the idiocy of some 'supporters' on this forum. when my sole reason for attending, is to discuss juve matters and wish our team the best of luck...

    What crawled up your backside?
    YOUR words...byrone. are what bothered me. I was merely sharing a link I thought to be serious, and you mock it. Thats the story. Had I been looking for anything more than to discuss the link, i would have added my own opinion, other than the forum expected details and the wikipedia write-up/...and yes, it bothered me, that someone would mock my efforts, to simply discuss with other juve supporters a seemingly serious transfer link...

    He didn't mock you or the link. Mark, Dule and Nick are the ones who always start these threads about players linked to us so Byrone was actually joking about them for being lazy bastards and for letting someone else start a thread. :D

    He's have said the same if I started the thread. Nothing about you so don't take everything so personally.

    Besides his agent denying the rumour, I think he's piss poor as a CB. He isn't even a starter for Porto iirc. We need a 3rd and 4th CB with Legro out, and he could be a solution to our problem, but I see no reason of splashing some cash on him.We better get some young Italian. Rather go for a quality CB who can compete with Bonucci for the spot next to Chiellini (Gallas and Marquez would've been good last mercato) and get some Italian with potential and Serie A experience for 4th choice.

    Thanks for the long ass list.:D

    Hangleand, Agger, Subotić & Douglas.:tup: Make it happen?
    Douglas might be good on one-on-one's, but for a defender he is slow, but he's going to play for the Dutch NT soon, so grab him up before he becomes a regular player for the NT (which he will as Heitinga isn't as good as him) and his price will increase. Twente are some bitches when it comes to negotiations.

    Make Tasci happen if he's EU :D
