Clodoaldo Tavares de Santana, better known as Clodoaldo (Brazilian Portuguese: [klodoˈawdu]; born 25 September 1949), is a Brazilian former footballer who played as a defensive midfielder.[1]

Clodoaldo spent most of his career at Santos, with whom he had won five Campeonato Paulista, as well as a Campeonato Brasileiro Série A and the 1968 Intercontinental Supercup.[2]

He suffered a career-threatening knee injury when he was 29 years old,[3] and as a result, he left Santos in 1979 to join NASL team Tampa Bay Rowdies. He returned to Brazil after a single season in the United States, joining Nacional-AM.[3][4]
