Dante Bonfim Costa Santos (born: 18 October 1983) is a Brazilian football player who currently plays for Standard Liège in Belgium. His position is left back.

He was a regular player for Standard last season (07/08) in their championship winning campaign, making 33 appearances in the League and being a fixture in Standard's excellent defence - the club only conceding 19 goals in 34 matches.

His penalty kick was saved by Jose Reina in the 1st leg of their 3rd round qualifying match against Liverpool FC. The game finished 0-0. Despite missing the 11th minute penalty, Dante still put in a solid performance in his favoured left-back position.
