Adriano Leite Ribeiro (born February 17, 1982 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), known simply as Adriano, is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Inter Milan in the Italian Serie A.
Adriano is a burly player known for his agility, strength, balance, and ball control. His kicks are strong and accurate, though sometimes lacking technical execution, he is said to have one of the most powerful left feet in football. He began his career in the youth squad of Flamengo, and played in the pro squad between 1999 to 2001.
He came to international fame in his first appearance for Inter Milan, when he scored against Real Madrid in the 2001 Santiago Bernabeu Trophy with a powerful free kick in his first eight minutes on the pitch. With Inter already boasting first-class strikers, they loaned him out to ACF Fiorentina in 2002. In the summer of 2002, a 2-year co-ownership deal with Parma F.C. of the player was agreed. In Parma, he formed one of the most impressive striking duos of Serie's A last decade with Adrian Mutu. They each scored more than 15 goals with assists from each other.
