Bruno Chalkiadakis (Greek: Μπρούνο Χαλκιαδάκης), born Bruno Pereira Da Silva Araujo and better known simply as Bruno (born 7 April 1993) is a Greek-Brazilian footballer who plays as a midfielder.

Club career

Ergotelis

Bruno arrived in Greece at the age of 16, when he was spotted by Ergotelis scouters in Brazil. Considering him to be a strong prospect for the men's team, the club quickly arranged for his legal adoption by the club-affiliated Chalkiadakis family, which earned him Greek citizenship.[1] He initially played with the youth team of Ergotelis, and signed his first professional contract with the club on 24 May 2011.[2] He made his debut as a substitute on 11 December 2011, in a home match against club rival OFI.[3]
Bruno renewed his contract with the club on 21 August 2014, after a short-term dispute which temporarily placed him out of the team[4] and had since been a regular starter. Despite Ergotelis' relegation at the end of the season, he impressed with his skills, having scored 5 goals in a total of 29 season appearances for the club. He scored his first goal in a 4-1 away win against Niki Volos on 21 September 2014.[5]

Panionios

On 21 May 2015, it was reported in the Greek press that Bruno was transferred to Greek champions Olympiacos, signing a 5-year contract with the club. However, Bruno was eventually not included in the Olympiacos roster selection and as a result, he was released from his contract to sign a two-year deal with fellow Superleague side Panionios as a free agent.[6]

2016: The player Bruno, took contract with Panionios suspension for failing to report for the 2016/17 activities, the athlete was on vacation to his hometown and to date is not news sent or submitted to its actual club.

International career

Having acquired Greek citizenship, Bruno is eligible to play for the Greek national football team and was actually called up in the U-19 Greek national football team pre-selection for the 2012 Qatar Youth International Tournament along with team-mate Andreas Bouchalakis,[7] before suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury during a post-season Ergotelis friendly, which eventually kept him out of the tournament.[8]
