Leandro Sales de Santana, better known as Leozinho (born 12 December 1985 in São Luís), is a retired Brazilian footballer who plays as midfielder.
Career
An attacking midfielder in a creative role, who can also play wider, Leozinho started his professional career with Brazilian club Vasco da Gama but failed to make an impact. He continued his career by returning to his youth club Sport Recife. After joining Treze, interest in him also came from Europe. In 2007, he joined Greek champions Olympiacos, though failing to make an appearance for the team, and was mostly sent away on loan. Since then he has played for seven different clubs, including German side Braunschweig, Greek clubs OFI, Apollon Pontou, Panserraikos, Kalloni, Iraklis, and Turkish side Denizlispor.
On 27 May 2017, Leozinho signed a two-year contract with AEL. On 26 November 2017 he scored his first goal in a 3-1 away loss against Panetolikos. On 21 December 2017 he sealed a 3-0 home win against Xanthi for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Greek Cup.
