Ygor Maciel Santiago (born June 1, 1984 in Santana do Livramento, Rio Grande do Sul), commonly known as Ygor, is a Brazilian footballer (midfielder) who currently plays for Fluminense. Ygor was transferred to Start of Norway from Vasco da Gama for about €1.2 million in February 2007, after Brazilian national coach Dunga had advised him to find a European club to enhance his chances of a place in the Brazilian national squad. Following Start's relegation from the Norwegian Premier League in 2007, he was loaned out to Fluminense for the 2008 season in Brazil.
