Adriano Facchini (born 12 March 1983 in Xaxim, Santa Catarina) is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Portuguese club Gil Vicente F.C. as a goalkeeper.

Football career

After playing youth football with Santos FC, Facchini competed exclusively in his country's lower leagues. In 2009, aged 26, he moved to Portugal and signed for C.F. União, spending two years in the third division.

In the summer of 2011, Facchini continued in the country and joined top level side Gil Vicente FC, penning a three-year contract.[1] He made his debut in the competition on 12 August in a 2–2 home draw against S.L. Benfica,[2] and was the undisputed starter for the Barcelos team during his spell.
