Gislaine Cristina Souza da Silva (born 22 August 1988), commonly known as Gislaine, is a Brazilian football defender who currently plays for Fluminense, and has played for the Brazil women's national team. A zagueira, she joined Corinthians in 2018 after spending 13 years with São José. A year later, she moved on to Santos.
After playing futsal for three years at school, 16-year-old Gislaine attended a trial with São José Esporte Clube. Signed as a promising forward, she later developed into a defender.[2]
After 13 years at São José, in which she won three Copa Libertadores Femenina titles and the 2014 International Women's Club Championship, Gislaine transferred to Corinthians in January 2018.[3] She made her league debut against São Francisco BA on 25 April 2018.[4]
One year later she joined Santos.[5] Gislaine made her league debut against Foz Cataratas on 17 March 2019.[6] She scored her first league goal against Avaí on 12 April 2019, scoring in the 77th minute.[7]
In January 2020 she agreed a one-year contract with São Paulo FC.[8] Gislaine made her league debut against Cruzeiro on 10 February 2020.[9] She scored her first league goal against AS Minas ICESP on 30 August 2020, scoring in the 59th minute.[10]
Gislaine was part of the Brazil under-20 selection at the 2008 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.[11]
In December 2012, she was named in the senior Brazil women's national football team for the 2012 International Women's Football Tournament of City of São Paulo. But a broken hand meant that she had to withdraw from selection, to be replaced by Andréia Rosa.[12] She won a first cap for Brazil in September 2013, in a 1–0 win over New Zealand at the 2013 Valais Women's Cup.[13] She was called up to a national team training camp in January 2017.[14]
