Ismaily Gonçalves dos Santos (born 11 January 1990), known simply as Ismaily, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Ukrainian club FC Shakhtar Donetsk as a left back.

Club career

Brazil

Born in Angélica, Mato Grosso do Sul,[1] Ismaily started his career with Ivinhema Futebol Clube in 2007.[2] A forward,[3] he scored 11 goals to be his team's top scorer in the 2008 Campeonato Sul-Mato-Grossense.[4]

Ismaily subsequently moved to Desportivo Brasil, being immediately loaned to Esporte Clube São Bento until the end of the Copa Paulista.[5] However, he failed to make an appearance for the club.[6]

Back at Desportivo Brasil, Ismaily played for the under-20s in the 2009 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior and was converted to a left back, before being promoted to the first team.[4] He made his competitive debut on 10 May of that year, coming on as a first-half substitute in a 1–2 Campeonato Paulista Segunda Divisão home loss against Red Bull Brasil,[7] and appeared in only eight first-team matches before departing.[6]

Portugal

In the 2009–10 season, 19-year-old Ismaily moved to Portugal, signing for G.D. Estoril-Praia in the second division and playing all the games as a starter to help to an 11th-place finish. His first goal for his new club occurred on 8 November 2009, in a 2–0 home win over Gil Vicente FC.[8]

In summer 2010, Ismaily stayed in the country by joining Primeira Liga side S.C. Olhanense.[9] He appeared in 25 matches in his second year, scoring in a 3–2 away win against Vitória F.C. to help complete a comeback from 0–2.[10]

On 16 June 2012, after an aborted transfer to C.D. Nacional,[11] Ismaily joined fellow league team S.C. Braga for four years.[12] He made his official debut at S.L. Benfica in the league opener, providing two assists in an eventual 2–2 draw.[13]

On 22 August 2012, in the first leg of the last qualifying round for the UEFA Champions League, Ismaily equalized for Braga with a 30-meter effort, for the final 1–1 home draw against Udinese Calcio.[14]

Shakhtar Donetsk

In February 2013, Ismaily signed a five-year contract with FC Shakhtar Donetsk, joining a host of compatriots at the Ukrainian Premier League side.[15]

International career

In May 2017, Ismaily expressed interest in playing for the Ukraine national team.[16] On 20 March 2018, however, after the injuries of Filipe Luís and Alex Sandro, he was called by Brazil coach Tite for friendlies against Russia and Germany.[17]

Personal life

Ismaily was named after the motion picture Smiley, from 1956.[5]
