Early life

Adriano was born in Jacarepaguá, a neighbourhood in the city of Rio de Janeiro, to former Brazilian international footballer, also named Adriano. He was born while his father was competing with Brazil at the 2006 FIFA World Cup, and so his father first saw him in the form of a photograph sent while he was travelling with the squad.[1]

Club career

Adriano took an interest in football after his father, and began his career with a Barcelona-affiliated academy in Rio de Janeiro.[2] He was playing for Boavista before a move to Grêmio in April 2021.[3] [4] He marked his debut for Grêmio's under-15 side in June 2021 with a goal.[5] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Adriano found his opportunities at the club limited, and he was left off Grêmio's sixteen-player squad list for the Nike Cup.[6]

Following his departure from Grêmio in December 2021, he joined the academy of Serrano in early 2022.[6] He made headlines in Brazil for his goal-scoring ability while with Serrano, and was invited to trial with Danish side Esbjerg in October 2022.[7] [8] [9] Despite this, he remained with Serrano, signing a professional contract in April 2023 - a deal running through December 2026.[10]
