Fabiano Ribeiro de Freitas (born 29 February 1988), known simply as Fabiano, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Turkish club Fenerbahçe S.K. on loan from FC Porto as a goalkeeper.

Club career

Born in Mundo Novo, Bahia, Fabiano joined São Paulo FC in 2006, aged 18. During his four-year spell he only appeared in 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 Football Club at the Maracanã,[1][2] being part of the squads that won back-to-back national championships.

On 28 May 2011, Fabiano signed with Portuguese club S.C. Olhanense. He made his debut in the top division on 13 August in a 1–1 draw at Sporting Clube de Portugal, and went on to appear in all league games during the season as the Algarve side retained its division status.

Fabiano moved to FC Porto in late May 2012, penning a four-year contract.[3] He acted as understudy to compatriot Helton in his debut campaign, subsequently becoming a starter after an injury to the latter.

On 21 April 2015, in an away fixture for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League against FC Bayern Munich, his team lost 1–6, making it the worst in their European history.[4] In the subsequent off-season, he was loaned to Fenerbahçe SK.[5]
