Adriano Correia

One of few players in professional football who is genuinely two-footed, he is capable of playing as a defender or midfielder, on both sides of the pitch. On 16 July 2010, Adriano signed a 4+1 deal with Barcelona, for $9.5 million plus a conditional fee of €4 million; it also included a buyout clause of €90 million. He was awarded the #21 shirt vacated by Ukrainian Dmytro Chygrynskiy, departed after just one season. He made his debut in a pre-season friendly against Valerenga Football, coming on in the second half; on 14 August, he first appeared officially, in the first leg of the season's domestic supercup, a 1–3 loss at former side Sevilla.
