Geuvânio Santos Silva (born 5 April 1992), simply known as Geuvânio, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward.
Born in Ilha das Flores, Sergipe, Geuvânio appeared the most of his youth career with Santos' youth system, but also appeared with some lower clubs in the process. On 6 June 2012 he made his first-team – and Série A – debut, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–1 home draw against Fluminense.[1]
On 1 August, after being sparingly used, Geuvânio almost rescinded his link with Santos and joined Académica de Coimbra.[2] However, the deal fell through a day later.[3]
On 19 January 2013 Geuvânio was loaned to Penapolense until the end of 2013 Campeonato Paulista.[4] As a loanee he scored his first professional goal, the last of a 3–0 home win over São Bernardo on 23 March.[5]
Geuvânio returned to Santos in June,[6] and was a regular starter during the end of the 2013 season.[7] He retained his status for the 2014 campaign, under new manager Oswaldo de Oliveira.
Geuvânio netted his first goal for Peixe on 1 February 2014, the first of a 5–1 home routing over Botafogo-SP.[8] Late in the month, after scoring braces against Comercial-SP and Bragantino, he signed a new deal with the club, running until 2017.[9]
Geuvânio scored his first goal in the main category of Brazilian football on 22 May 2014, netting the first in a 2–2 draw at Goiás. He finished the year with 14 goals, seven behind Gabriel.
Geuvânio started the 2015 campaign with a brace in a 3–0 home success over Ituano. He repeated the fate in the last game of the year, a 5–1 home routing of Atlético Paranaense.
On 20 January 2016, Geuvânio was sold to China League One side Tianjin Quanjian for a fee of €11 million, joining compatriots Luís Fabiano, Jadson and Vanderlei Luxemburgo.[10]
On 21 June 2017 Flamengo signed Geuvânio on loan until the end of 2018 season.[11]
On 8 March 2019, after being released from his contract with Tianjin Quanjian, Geuvânio joined Atlético Mineiro on a year-long deal which included an optional renewal clause.[12]
On 16 June 2020, after nearly six months without a club, Geuvânio agreed to a 18-month deal with Athletico Paranaense still in the top tier.[13]
On 17 March 2021, Geuvânio was announced at Chapecoense, newly promoted to the top tier.[14]

On 2 May 2017, a group of friends quite fond of the player encountered a strange video in the alleyway right next to a stray cat in Topeka, Kansas. The video titled,"Viene Geuvânio". The duration is about 3 minutes long and says things like,"Geuvânio is Geuvânio is vcbcbv k kgv vkjf vjk", "VIENE GEUVẴNIO ESCONDER AHORA", and such. The tape was later told to have jumpscares but is unconfirmed..
