Fabiano Ribeiro de Freitas (born 29 February 1988), known simply as Fabiano, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Cypriot club AC Omonia as a goalkeeper.
Club career[]
São Paulo and Olhanense[]
Born in Mundo Novo, Bahia,[2] Fabiano joined São Paulo FC in 2006, aged 18. During his four-year spell he only played two Série A games, also being loaned to several modest teams. He made his debut in the top division on 13 October 2007 in a 1–1 draw against Fluminense FC at the Maracanã Stadium where he saved a penalty, being part of the squads that won back-to-back national championships.[3]
On 28 June 2011, Fabiano signed with Portuguese club S.C. Olhanense.[4] He made his debut in the Primeira Liga on 13 August in a 1–1 draw at Sporting CP,[5] and went on to appear in all league matches during the season as the Algarve side retained their division status.
Porto[]
Fabiano moved to FC Porto in late May 2012, penning a four-year contract.[6] He acted as understudy to compatriot Helton in his debut campaign, subsequently becoming a starter after an injury to the latter.[7]
On 21 April 2015, in an away fixture for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League against FC Bayern Munich, his team lost 6–1, making it the worst in their European history.[8] In the subsequent off-season, he was loaned to Fenerbahçe SK.[9]
Back at the Estádio do Dragão, Fabiano missed the vast majority of 2017–18 due to an injury to his right knee.[10] He earned a champions' winners medal in the last matchday after playing the last minutes of the 1–0 away win over Vitória de Guimarães, having replaced third choice Vaná.[11]
Fabiano played all the matches save one in the 2018–19 edition of the Taça de Portugal, where his team reached the final.[12][13] He was not featured in the domestic league, however.
Omonia[]
On 17 October 2019, the 31-year-old Fabiano signed a one-year deal with AC Omonia of the Cypriot First Division, as a free agent.[14]
