Anderson Ferreira da Silva (born 23 August 1995), commonly known as Pará, is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Operário-PR as a left back.
Club career
Born in Capanema, Pará started his career at Remo as a forward, but due to his low height he later moved to the left back position, before joining Bahia.[1] He made his debut with the latter's first team on 2 February 2014, featuring the last ten minutes in a 1–2 away loss against Santa Cruz for that year's Copa do Nordeste.[2]
Pará made his Série A debut on 20 April, starting in a 1–2 home loss against Cruzeiro.[3] He scored his first goal in the competition on 11 May, netting his team's only in a 1–1 home draw against fierce rivals Vitória.[4]
On 28 January 2015 Pará moved to fellow league team Cruzeiro, signing a four-year deal and with Raposa buying 50% of his rights for R$500,000 fee.[5][6]
