Gilson do Amaral (born April 4, 1984), commonly known as Gilsinho, is a Brazilian former footballer who played as a striker.

Career[edit]

Gilsinho's early career was spent at clubs in São Paulo state, such as Marília, Ituano and Paulista. After a successful Campeonato Paulista campaign with the latter in 2017, during which he scored 8 goals, he signed with Júbilo Iwata from Brazilian club Paulista. The deal was initially a year's loan, with an option to make it permanent. The move was later made permanent, with Gilsinho penning a new contract with Júbilo. He was a regular starter in his four seasons stay, helping the club to the 2010 J. League Cup.[1]

Corinthians signed Gilsinho ahead of the 2012 season.[1] In July 2012 he moved to Sport Recife to play 2012 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A[2]

On 12 July 2013, Gilsinho joined J1 League club Ventforet Kofu, replacing Paraguayan striker José Ortigoza.[3] He returned to Brazil in 2015, joining up with former team-mate from Paulista Fernando Diniz, who was now coach of Audax[4] At the end of the Campeonato Paulista season he returned to Japan with J2 League side FC Gifu, but didn't make much impact, being released at the end of the year.[5][6]

He returned home to Brazil again at the start of 2016, signing with Atlético Goianiense for a season which culminated in winning the 2016 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B.[7][8]

For the 2017 season, Gilsinho once again took a contract in Japan, with J2 League side Avispa Fukuoka.[9]

In 2018 Gilsinho played with Mirassol in Campeonato Paulista, moving to Ferroviária to play in Série D until their early exit from the competition, at which point he signed for Botafogo-SP, playing a small part in their promotion from Série C.[10] He signed for a second spell with Atlético Goianiense for the 2019 season.[11]
