Fábio Luciano (born on April 29, 1975 in Vinhedo, Brazil) is a Brazilian football defender. He is 1.90 meters tall, and weighs 80 kilograms.

His youth playing was brought up at the Brazilian club Ponte Preta. After showing good talent, Internacional showed interest in him. After buying him, Corinthians had gained an even bigger interest. After some time, they made a move.

After spending a couple years at Corinthians, he was transferred to Fenerbahçe in 2003. He was selected a couple times for Brazil after showing consistent performances for Fenerbahçe in the 2003-2004 season. In August of 2006 his contract with Fenerbahçe was cancelled about his 6 months injury.

On January 2007, he signed 6 months contract with German side FC Köln.

At the end of July 2007, he signed with Flamengo a 6 month contract.

He's notorious for his presence in the attack, as shown in many games with his former club Fenerbahçe, having scored goals with headers from dead ball situations and even supported the forward line unexpectedly. He became a fan favourite with his spectacular dead ball goals for Fenerbahçe fans. He also scored in his debut in Flamengo.

He also has Italian citizenship.
