Igor Alberto Rinck de Diver Camargo (born 12 May 1983), known as Igor de Camargo, is a former professional footballer who played as a striker. Born in Brazil, he represented the Belgium national team.

Club career

Early career

Born in Porto Feliz, São Paulo, De Camargo moved to Belgium in November 2000, after making his senior debut with local side Estrela Esporte Clube. He joined KRC Genk after impressing on a trial, but was only promoted to the first team in 2001 after spending six months with the B-side.[1]

De Camargo only made his senior debut on 20 October 2001, coming on as a late substitute for Moumouni Dagano in a 4–2 home win against KFC Lommel SK. He scored his first goal for the side the following 12 January, netting his team's fifth in a 6–1 away defeat of KSK Beveren.

After featuring rarely during the 2002–03 season (which included 11 minutes in a 6–0 loss at Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League),[2] De Camargo was loaned to newly-promoted side K. Beringen-Heusden-Zolder in June 2003 for the coming season.[3]

De Camargo scored ten goals for the side during the campaign; highlights included a brace in a 3–1 home win against RSC Charleroi on 4 April 2004.[4] Upon returning to Genk, he featured sparingly before moving to fellow top tier side FC Molenbeek Brussels Strombeek in January 2005.

Standard Liège

In late January 2006, De Camargo agreed to a contract with Standard Liège, still in the top division.[5] He made his debut for the club on 11 February in a 2–0 away defeat of KSK Beveren, and scored his first goal the following weekend in a 7–1 home win against Cercle Brugge KSV.

De Camargo was a regular starter during the following campaigns, being a key member of the attack as Standard won two league titles in a row. In January 2009, he signed a new contract until June 2013.[6]

On 16 September 2009, De Camargo captained the side in a 3–2 home loss against Arsenal.[7]

Borussia Mönchengladbach

On 22 April 2010, De Camargo announced that he would transfer to Bundesliga club Borussia Mönchengladbach at the end of the season.[8] After struggling with injuries, he made his debut for the club on 2 October, playing the last eight minutes in a 1–1 home draw against VfL Wolfsburg.[9]

De Camargo scored his first goal for Borussa on 6 November 2010, netting his team's third in a 3–3 home draw against FC Bayern Munich; he previously assisted Marco Reus in Borussia's second goal.[10] He suffered a knee injury in the following match which kept him out of the latter stages of the season,[11] but still returned in May. He scored the winner on 19 May in a 1–0 home defeat of VfL Bochum, and also assisted Reus in the equalizer in the 1–1 away draw in the return leg six days later, as his side narrowly avoided relegation through the play-offs.[12]

De Camargo was loaned to fellow top tier club TSG 1899 Hoffenheim on 29 January 2013, until the end of the season.[13] He left the side with one goal in only eight matches, being an unused substitute in both legs of the relegation play-offs.

Back to Standard Liège

On 8 July 2013, De Camargo signed a three-year contract at his former club Standard Liège.[14] A backup to Imoh Ezekiel and Michy Batshuayi during his first season, he managed to score eleven goals in his second.

Back to Genk

On 23 June 2015, KRC Genk signed De Camargo from Standard Liège; he returned to his first professional club on a two-year deal.[15] He played his first match for the side on 25 July, starting and scoring a brace in a 3–1 home win against OH Leuven.

Despite appearing regularly, De Camargo only contributed with seven goals in 33 matches.

APOEL

On 15 July 2016, De Camargo signed a two-year contract with reigning Cypriot champions APOEL FC.[16] He made his competitive debut on 27 July as a 77th-minute substitute in his team's 2–1 away defeat against Rosenborg BK in the third qualifying round of the Champions League.[17]

De Camargo scored his first goal for APOEL on 10 September, netting the third goal in his team's 4–0 away victory against Nea Salamis Famagusta FC in the 2016–17 First Division.[18] Five days later, he scored the winner against FC Astana in the group stage of the 2016–17 UEFA Europa League.[19]
