Bruno Oliveira de Matos (born 5 June 1990) is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or winger for Bangladesh Premier League club Dhaka Abahani.

Born in Barra, in the Brazilian state of Bahia, Bruno played with XV de Piracicaba in the 2009–10 season^[1] from where he was brought in summer 2010 by Luis Felipe Scolari to Palmeiras and signed a 4-year contract with the club.^[2] He debuted in the 2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A^[3] however as Scolari left Palmeiras, Bruno saw Scolari's successors making other choices so he struggled for a spot in the first team. In the second year, he opted to accept a loan to Oeste during 2011.^{[citation needed]} On loan, he played for a number of clubs during 2012. In 2013 Bruno signed on loan with Juazeiro and his consistent performances with the club in the Campeonato Baiano earned him a move on loan in May to ASA playing in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B.^[3]

He started 2014 by playing with Nacional-MG on loan from Palmeiras in the Campeonato Mineiro but by mid February he moved to Campeonato Baiano side Juazeirense on loan.^[3]

In August 2014, he made his first move abroad, and on 28 August, he signed a 2-year contract with Serbian club FK Novi Pazar.^[4] His regular performances with Novi Pazar in the 2014–15 Serbian SuperLiga earned him a move at the end of the season to Serbian giants Red Star Belgrade. He made 5 appearances and scored once in the league for Red Star, but that ended up not being enough, and in order to get more time on the pitch, he was loaned back to his former club, Novi Pazar, during the second half of the season. After finishing the loan, he was released by Red Star in order to open a place for a foreign player.^[3]

After being released from Red Star Belgrade, Bruno ended up signing with Iranian side Sanat Naft Abadan.^[3]
