Roger Galera Flores (born August 17, 1978) is a Brazilian attacking midfielder, who, as of 2006, plays for Corinthians in Campeonato Brasileiro Série A.
Roger started his career with Fluminense in 1999 and moved on to the Portuguese club SL Benfica for a brief six month stint in 2001 before coming back to his original club. Between 2001-2005, Roger alternated between Fluminense and Benfica before being acquired by Corinthians for a reported US$7 million. In late October 2005, Roger broke his leg in a 1-1 tie with Vasco da Gama which knocked him out for the rest of the Campeonato.
