Pedro Paulo Alves Vieira dos Reis (born 10 February 1994), known as Pedro Paulo, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a forward for Portuguese club Rio Ave, on loan from Cruzeiro.

Club career

Born in Arrozal, Piraí, Rio de Janeiro, Pedro Paulo began his career at Cruzeiro, and on 6 November 2014 was loaned to fellow Série A team Clube Atlético Paranaense.[1] He was first included in a matchday squad on 2 November 2014, remaining an unused substitute in their 1–0 home win over Clube Atlético Mineiro in Série A. Three weeks later he made his professional debut, as an added-time replacement for Marcelo Cirino at the end of a 2–1 win at Esporte Clube Bahia. On 7 December, in the last game of the season, he made his only other appearance in a 1–1 draw at Palmeiras, again off the bench. In February 2015, he made three substitute appearances in the season's Campeonato Paranaense.

On 13 July 2015, he was loaned out again, to Portugal's Rio Ave F.C., for the upcoming Primeira Liga campaign.[2]

International career

Pedro Paulo was part of the Brazilian team which won the 2011 South American Under-17 Football Championship, playing eight games and scoring twice in a 4–3 win over Venezuela in the opener on 13 March.[3]
