Mauro Silva Sousa (born 31 October 1990 in Livramento de Nossa Senhora, Bahia), known simply as Mauro, is a Brazilian retired footballer who played as a defensive midfielder.

He spent his entire professional career in Portugal after starting out at Atlético Clube Goianiense, representing Primeira Liga clubs Gil Vicente F.C. and S.C. Braga. On 3 June 2018, aged only 27, he was forced to retire due a serious knee injury contracted in late November 2016 that led to a bacterial infection.[1][2]
