Magno Silva Vieira (born 13 February 1985 in Brazil) is a professional footballer who currently plays as a striker with Cambridge United, on loan until the end of the 2007/08 season from Crawley Town.

Magno started his career in England with Wigan Athletic in 2003 but failed to get into the 1st team and went out on loan to Northampton Town and Carlisle United. He left Wigan in 2005 and was set to join the Brunton Park club on a permanent basis, after playing an important part in Carlisle's return to the Football League, but passport problems prevented him joining Carlisle. After this, Vieira took a year out of football before he signed for Barnet in 2006. He spend one year at Underhill, being released in May 2007. After his release by Barnet, Vieira signed for Crawley Town in June 2007, becoming one of Steve Evans' first signings for the club.[1] On 6 March 2008, Vieira was allowed to join Cambridge United on loan for the remainder of the 2007/08 season.

Cambridge United fans have nicknamed their Brazilian superstar "Suco".
