He scored his first goal for the club on 5 April, in a 2–0 league win against CFR Cluj.[9] On 27 July 2017, in a Europa League qualifying game against Athletic Bilbao, Rivaldinho scored from a "terrific" long–range effort to earn Dinamo a 1–1 draw against the Spanish team.[10][11]

On 27 January 2018, Rivaldinho signed a 2+1⁄2-year contract with Bulgarian club Levski Sofia.[12] He was on one of the club's largest salaries, but suffered from injuries.[13]
