Andrey da Silva Ventura (born 17 July 1993), simply known as Andrey, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Inter de Lages.

Club career[edit]

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Andrey finished his formation with Botafogo. On 16 July 2014 he made his first team – and Série A – debut, starting in a 0–1 away loss against Sport Recife.[1]

Andrey appeared in four matches during the campaign, suffering team relegation. On 22 January 2015 he rescinded his link with the club, moving to Botafogo-SP shortly after.[2] He was part of the team that won the 2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.

He was loaned to Cabofriense in January 2016, reuniting with former coach Eduardo Hungaro.[3]

International career[edit]

Andrey was called to the Brazil under-23 side that played in the Football at the 2015 Pan American Games – Men's tournament,[4] starting all the five matches as Brazil won the bronze medal.

Sexual assault allegation[edit]

In 2015, Andrey represented Brazil at the Pan American Games.[5] The Toronto Police Service issued arrest warrants for him and teammate Lucas Piazon, on charges of sexual assault of a 21-year-old woman whom they met at the Drake nightclub;[6] allegedly, Piazon and Ventura entered the woman's bedroom after she had gone to sleep and then assaulted her.[5] The police stated that due to the limited nature of the Ontario-wide nature of the warrant, "we can't go through the extradition process."[7][8]

The charges against Piazon were later dropped, although the charges against Andrey Ventura still stand.[9]

Personal life[edit]

Andrey is the brother of Andrew, who is also a Brazilian football goalkeeper.[10]
