Severino do Ramo Clementino da Silva (born 10 January 1986), known as Nino Paraíba or simply Nino, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a right back. He is currently without a club.

Club career

Early career

Born in Rio Tinto, Paraíba, Nino made his senior debut with Desportiva Guarabira in 2006.[1] In 2008, after an unassuming spell at Ceará, he joined Náutico, but was subsequently released.[2]

In December 2008 Nino was presented at Sousa,[3] and was a starter with the side crowned champions of 2009 Campeonato Paraibano.

Vitória

On 2 June 2009, after being linked to a move to Bahia,[4] Nino signed for Vitória.[5] He made his first team – and Série A – debut on 4 July, coming on as a second-half substitute for Apodi in a 1–2 away loss against Flamengo.[6]

A backup option during his first two seasons, Nino only became a regular starter during the 2011 campaign, in the Série B. He scored his first league goal on 27 September of that year, netting the last in a 2–0 home win against Ponte Preta.[7]

On 15 June 2012 Nino signed a new three-year deal with Vitória, until 2015.[8] Due to injuries, he lost his first-choice status during the 2013 season to Ayrton.

On 15 April 2015, after being deemed surplus to requirements, Nino was loaned to Avaí in the top tier until December.[9] He was an undisputed starter for the side, featuring in 35 matches as his side suffered relegation.

Ponte Preta

On 9 December 2015, Nino signed a one-year deal with Ponte Preta.[10] On 6 September of the following year, he extended his contract until December 2017.[11]

On 14 May 2017 Nino scored his first goal in the main category of Brazilian football, netting the second in a 4–0 home routing of Sport Recife.[12]

Bahia

On 3 January 2018, free agent Nino signed for Bahia also in the top tier.[13] He was a regular starter for the side, winning three Campeonato Baiano titles in a row but leaving after their relegation in 2021.

Ceará

On 30 December 2021, Nino signed a contract with Ceará still in the first division.[14] The following 23 November, after another relegation, he left the club.[15]

América Mineiro

On 26 November 2022, Nino was announced at América Mineiro on a one-year deal.[16] On 15 May of the following year, the club accepted his request for a contract rescision, after having his name involved in the 2023 Brazilian football match-fixing scandal.[17]
