Cristiano da Silva (pronounced as /pt-BR/; born 12 January 1987), sometimes known as just Cristiano, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a forward for Portuguesa.[1]
Cristiano was a youth product of Coritiba, but made his senior debut with Toledo in 2006. He subsequently represented Adap Galo, Marcílio Dias and before signing for Metropolitano in 2009. He then served loans at Rio Claro, Chapecoense and Juventude.[2]

Cristiano enjoyed a seven-year spell at Kashiwa, scoring 93 goals for the side. Ahead of the 2022 season, he moved to V-Varen Nagasaki.
On 5 August 2023, Cristiano was returned to Ventforet Kofu on loan until the end of the year.[5] He scored his first goal for Ventforet against Mito HollyHock on 30 of September 2023.[6]
