André Candançam Pinto, or simply Andre Pinto (born December 14 1978, in São Paulo, Brazil), is a Brazilian striker.

He is currently playing for Marítimo in the Portuguese Liga, where he previously earned his prolific goalscoring reputation starring for Marítimo's local rivals Nacional twice and Santa Clara. Ironically, his debut goal for Nacional came in a 3-2 derby win against Marítimo in a vital league match.

After three years playing in Portugal, Pinto moved across to Asia, signing for J.League side Kyoto Sanga and his 19 goals in 42 games in two seasons for the club earned him a place as one of the league's top strikers.

Pinto returned to Portugal in 2008, signing for Marítimo on the final day of the transfer window, January 31, as a replacement for the outbound Ariza Makukula.
