Cícero Casimiro Sanches Semedo (born 8 May 1986 in Seia, Guarda), simply Cícero, is a Portuguese-born Bissauan footballer who plays for F.C. Paços de Ferreira as a forward.

Football career

A product of Sporting Clube de Braga's youth system, powerfully built Cícero was promoted to the first team for 2004–05. On 30 August 2004, he made his main side debut, appearing in a 2–2 draw at Académica de Coimbra. In November, as a second-half substitute, Cícero scored his first top division goal, in a 2–0 home win against G.D. Estoril Praia.

In January 2005, he moved to Russia for FC Dynamo Moscow, as many Portuguese players (or playing in the league) during that period, returning to Portugal in the 2009 January transfer window, joining Braga's rivals Vitória de Guimarães. In the summer, he signed with division two club U.D. Oliveirense.
