Adriano Leite Ribeiro (born February 17, 1982 in Rio de Janeiro), commonly known as simply Adriano, is a Brazilian football striker who is currently on the books of Roma and is also a current member of the Brazilian national team
Club career
Early career
Adriano started his career in 1999 on Flamengo's youth squad and earned promotion to the senior squad one year later. He made his team debut on February 2, 2000, a Torneio Rio-São Paulo match against Botafogo. He scored a goal against São Paulo in the same competition 4 days later.

Despite signing a two-year contract with Flamengo in June 2000, he secured a move to Internazionale for the 2001-02 season and scored his first goal with the club against Real Madrid in a friendly match as a substitute

Parma
Adriano was loaned out to league rival Fiorentina for the 2001-02 season,[3] after which a two-year co-ownership deal with Parma was agreed, which also included Matteo Ferrari.He formed an impressive striking duo with Adrian Mutu, scoring 22 goals in 36 appearances. He missed the month of November 2003 due to injury.

Inter return
Adriano returned to the San Siro in 2004 on a 4-year contract[6] and scored a total of 15 goals in his 16 appearances during the 2004-05 season.[citation needed] From July 11, 2004 through June 25, 2005, Adriano was in peak form, scoring an impressive total of 40 goals in both domestic and international competitions. In September 2005, Inter rewarded him for his efforts with an improved contract running until June 30, 2010

Following the signing of the new deal, Adriano's future at Inter suffered due to poor performances, fueled by questions and speculation regarding his work ethic, which was called into question when he was twice caught partying at nightclubs during the 2006-07 campaign. Brazilian coach Dunga did not call Adriano up for a friendly against Ecuador on October 10, 2006, and called for him to "change his behavior" and "focus on football". On February 18, 2007, Adriano skipped a team practice due to effects from a lengthy celebration of his birthday the night before, which led to Inter manager Roberto Mancini benching him for the team's Champions League match against Valencia and subsequent Serie A fixture against Catania
