Rui Pedro dos Santos Patricio ComM (born 15 February 1988) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Serie A club Roma and the Portugal national team. He is often nicknamed "Sao Patricio" (Saint Patricio) for his saves for club and country.
A product of Sporting CP's youth academy, Patricio made his first team debut at the age of 18, and went on to appear in 467 official games. He won five trophies during his 12 years with the club, including two Portuguese Cups, before moving to England to join Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2018. In 2021, he signed for Roma, where he won the Europa Conference League in his first season.
Patricio earned his first cap for Portugal in 2010, after Paulo Bento's appointment as head coach, and his 100th in 2021. He represented the nation in three World Cups and four European Championships, winning the 2016 edition of the latter tournament as well as the 2019 Nations League.<\/P>","289C5F85E5EE1B609E88960AAED5C65D":"1988-2-15","92D102DDE1327A88":"Rui Pedro dos Santos Patricio","95081CC600C137A3ECD07E1A2BAC6047":"999","DF03820F537F8E7C95F8F8605BCB052C":"Portugal","6438FCEB8DF4FD6202A461D3835934E5":"Atalanta BC,AS Roma,Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.,Sporting Clube de Portugal,Atletico Clube Purtugal(U19)","26A41B77C025E2F442D11C4E5D31FCE8":"3","DAF09C52CF6076BDF21F9C2EFDD9E43065C5B3AC13FF9DA2":"1","76E5DE99890AB189":"190cm","70356B8F0C59F6B5":"2484","3DD52A7123843A0599BD59EBE6AB4E97":"Atalanta BC","1E9A8D352C52FB60DE0D25B327F8FD01":"2025-6-1","DAF09C52CF6076BD5E585110E27D1A5D":"1000000.00","FD1933E1882D5E7A216F21827D2B22B4":"","B628C0FB460378A51A233D645651DF2F":"
