Marcos Robson Cipriano (born 2 February 1999) , simply known as Marquinhos Cipriano, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Sion as a left-back.

Club career

A native of Catanduva, Cipriano joined the youth academy of Desportivo Brasil at the age of 14 after an unsuccessful trial with Santos FC. While playing for Desportivo Brasil, he was scouted by Grêmio, Santos, Palmeiras and Corinthians; although he wanted to play for his favourite club São Paulo. In September 2015, he was bought by São Paulo Futebol Clube for $1 million.[4] His contract termination fee was set at $120 million.[3] Soon after joining the club, São Paulo rejected a $7 million offer from Spanish club Atlético Madrid to secure his services. He emerged as the top scorer of the U-17 Campeonato Paulista of 2016 with 21 goals and was subsequently promoted to the under-20 team.[4] On 16 January 2018, Cipriano was called to the senior team for a match against São Bento in the Paulista.[5] He made his debut in the match, coming as a substitute for Júnior Tavares in the 2–0 defeat.[6][7]

On 10 July 2018, Cipriano moved abroad and joined Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk on a five-year deal. He previously signed a pre-season contract with the club in January 2018.[8][9]

Cipriano has a twin brother named Mateus who is a volleyball player. He also has a sister named Monique.[4]
