Alessandro Viana da Silva (better known just as Alessandro, born August 10, 1983) is a Brazilian football (soccer) player who plays for A-League club Melbourne Victory. He has previously played for Brazilian clubs sides Internacional Porto Alegre, ADAP and Angra dos Reis. Alessandro is a lightning-quick left-back who possesses a fine technique and an attacking attitude to the position.[1] He was spotted in Brazil by Melbourne Victory coach Ernie Merrick. Merrick likened him to legendary Brazilian fullback Roberto Carlos because of his pacy runs down the flank and quality crosses.
