Orlando Francisco Pires Júnior (born 17 February 1984), commonly known as Lincom, is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Bragantino as a striker.

Club career

Born in Camapuã, Mato Grosso do Sul, Lincom moved to Birigui, São Paulo at the age of two.[1] After graduating with Internacional, he made his debuts as a senior with Lemense, a club he already represented as a youth, in 2003.

After representing Portuguesa Santista, Araçatuba and Sertãozinho, Lincom moved to Belgian Pro League side Westerlo in January 2007. He made his debut in the category on 17 March, coming on as a late substitute for Patrick Ogunsoto in a 1–0 home win against Mouscron.

Lincom appeared rarely and subsequently returned to Brazil in the 2007 summer, with CRAC. In 2009, while at Rio Branco, he scored 20 goals in Campeonato Paulista Série A2, and subsequently moved to Série A club Sport Recife.[2]

Lincom made his debut in the main category of Brazilian football on 16 August 2009, playing the last 18 minutes in a 1–2 home loss against São Paulo.[3] On 17 November, after appearing in only three matches, he rescinded his contract and moved to Ituano.[4][5]

Lincom subsequently moved to Criciúma,[6] scoring three goals as his side achieved promotion to Série B. On 4 July 2011 he moved to Bragantino, also in the second division.[7]

Lincom scored 20 goals during the year's Série B, being the second best goalscorer in the category. He continued to appear regularly for Massa Bruta until March 2014, when he was loaned to Chinese side Chongqing Lifan.[8]

Lincom returned to Bragantino in July,[9] and appeared regularly until the end of the year. After a short spell at Penapolense,[10] he was loaned to Corinthians until the end of 2015, still owned by Braga.[11]
