Leandro dos Santos Branco

Leandro dos Santos Branco (born 2 June 1983) is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a forward.

Career Branco was born in Lages, Santa Catarina. After spending most of his career with modest clubs in his country, Branco had a brief stint with Chilean club Audax Italiano in 2006 and moved in 2007–08 to Portugal, signing with Vitória de Setúbal. His stint with the Sado River side proved a nightmare, as he failed to score a single Primeira Liga goal in two seasons combined, also receiving his marching orders in a 2–1 away loss against Belenenses on 11 April 2009; he netted twice in official games during his stint, one in the Portuguese Cup and another in the domestic League Cup, with his team winning the latter competition.

In the 2009 summer, Branco returned to his country, signing with Criciúma. The following year he switched to Metropolitano, and continued playing at that level in the subsequent campaigns, representing for example Marcílio Dias and Tubarão in several stints.

In May 2017, Branco joined Sete de Dourados.
