Ramón Idalecio Cardozo (born 23 April 1986) is a Paraguayan professional footballer who plays for Portuguese club Moreirense F.C. as a forward.

Football career

Born in Villarrica, Guairá, Cardozo played most of his professional career with Tacuary. In January 2007 he was loaned to F.C. Penafiel in Portugal, being sparingly used by the second division club during his five-month spell, in an eventual eighth-place finish.

In 2013 Cardozo returned to Portugal, going on to represent, always in the Primeira Liga, Vitória F.C. and Moreirense FC.

Personal life

In spite of the same surname, a similar nickname ("Tacuarita") and physical resemblance, Cardozo is not related to Óscar Cardozo, who is also a footballer and a forward who played with team and individual success with S.L. Benfica, and was also a longtime Paraguayan international.[1]
