After the arrival of Evaldo Fabiano from S.C. Braga in the 2010 off-season, Grimi became a fringe player for Sporting, appearing in only four official matches during 2010–11 (two in the league, for a total of 253 minutes), and being loaned in the very last day of the 2011 summer transfer window to K.R.C. Genk in the Belgian Pro League.
He was the second-choice left-back, behind Brazilian Ronny and, with Leandro Grimi's arrival in January 2008, on loan from A.C. Milan, he was deemed surplus to requirements by manager Paulo Bento, subsequently returning to Lokomotiv in February.
