Club career

After graduating from the youth academy at hometown's C.S. Marítimo in 2000, Funchal-born Olim played his entire career with the Madeira club, but never managed to hold down a regular starting place in the team. He made his Primeira Liga debut on 28 January 2001, playing 90 minutes in a 0–2 away loss against Gil Vicente FC,[1] and finished his first season with the main squad with only three league appearances.

For the duration of his spell, Olim also appeared regularly with the B-team in both the second and third divisions. He retired in June 2015, two months shy of his 34th birthday, being appointed assistant coach at precisely the reserves.[2]

gollark: It's programmed to approximately maximize that and a ton of other broadly defined things in a weird heuristic way.
gollark: It's not programmed to do that. That would be *rational optimization* for some goal, which brains are bad at.
gollark: I have no idea how to do fun comparison across species, and food scarcity and misery sounds not fun.
gollark: It matters to current-me, so I don't want to do that.
