Luan Andrade Santana (born 6 April 1990) is a Brazilian former footballer who played predominantly as a right-back.[1]

Career

Joga 10 and early career

Andrade was born in Guarujá, in the Brazilian state of São Paulo.[2] He played in the academy of Portuguesa Santista during his youth.[3] While watching television with his grandmother in her home in Paecará [pt], Guarujá, Andrade saw an advertisement for an upcoming reality show, Joga 10 [pt], in which a number of boys would compete to earn a contract with professional football club, Corinthians.[2] Despite his mother's encouragement, he initially doubted himself, but applied regardless.[2]

He attended an initial screening at Corinthians' Parque São Jorge headquarters, where he was selected as one of forty-three boys from the 4,082 who applied to continue to psychological tests.[2] Having also passed these, he became one of twenty-two finalists who would go on to star on the show.[2] As the competition progressed, Andrade was one of the four finalists, and impressed judges, and former footballers, Dunga, Bebeto and Mário Zagallo to win the competition.[2]

He began training with Corinthians, the club he had supported growing up, on 22 August 2005, and having impressed coach Jorge Saran, he was added to the club's under-16 side.[2] However, he eventually fell out of favour at the club, and in early 2007 he moved to Santos.[2]

A year later he was approached by Portuguese side Porto, and made the move to Portugal to begin training with the side.[2][4] However, he moved to Benfica shortly after, before joining Feirense in the same year.[2][4] He signed his first professional contract with Feirense, but was unable to break into the first-team during his year-and-a-half with the club.[2] He returned to Brazil in 2009, initially joining Goiás, before playing for Bragantino until 2012.[2]

Professional career

Having represented Sete de Junho in the Campeonato Sergipano, Andrade was approached by a businessman who had watched him play, and was invited to move to Honduras to join Liga Nacional de Ascenso side Unión Sabá.[2] However, due to issues with his registration, he was unable to play during his five months with the club, and returned to Brazil in 2013, later stating that he had considered giving up playing football at this point.[2]

He had a brief stint with Grêmio Barueri, where he was involved in the club's preparations for the Campeonato Paulista, playing in a friendly match against Santos, where he was tasked with marking Brazilian international Neymar.[2] Later in the same year, he signed for XV de Piracicaba.[5] A short spell with Marcílio Dias followed, before spending the 2014 season with São José, and signing with Inter de Limeira ahead of the 2015 season.[3]

Andrade spent the second half of the 2015 season with Brasiliense, before spending the following year with both Paracatu and Ceilândia.[4] Quiet spells with Sobradinho, Madureira, América-GO, Real Brasília and Anapolina followed, before he joined Central for the 2020 season.[6] Having failed to make an appearance for Central, he joined Gama for the 2022 edition of the Campeonato Brasiliense.[7]
