Luís Miguel de Olim Andrade (born 27 August 1981 in Funchal, Madeira), known as Olim, is a Portuguese retired professional footballer. A versatile defender, he could play on either flank or in the middle.

Football career

After graduating from the youth academy at hometown's C.S. Marítimo in 2000, 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, 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.
