Orlando Enrique Berrío Meléndez (born 14 February 1991) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a winger or forward for China League One club Qingdao West Coast. He also represented Colombia national football team in six international appearances.

Club career

Born in Cartagena, Berrío played for Expreso Rojo and Atlético Nacional as a youth.[2] He made his first team – and Categoría Primera A – debut on 22 February 2009, starting in a 0–1 home loss against Deportes Quindío.

Berrío scored his first professional goal on 8 April 2010, in a 2–0 home win against América de Cali. Three days later, he netted a brace in an away success over Cortuluá, for the same scoreline.

Sparingly used, Berrío was loaned to fellow top tier club Millonarios on 3 January 2012.[3] On 3 August 2012, after failing to score a single goal for the club, he was loaned to Patriotas for one year.[4]

Returning to Nacional, Berrío was regularly utilized by new manager Juan Carlos Osorio.

On 22 October 2017, in a Brazilian Série A match against São Paulo at Pacaembu Stadium, Berrío suffered a knee injury that later was confirmed as an anterior cruciate ligament injury.[8] In the same week, he underwent surgery, causing him to miss the rest of the 2017 season.[9]

Khor Fakkan

On 19 July 2020, Berrío signed with Khor Fakkan.[10]

América Mineiro

After spending an entire year without playing at Khor Fakkan, Berrío signed with América Mineiro on 12 July 2021.[11]
