Ronieli Gomes dos Santos (born April 25, 1991), better known as Roni is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a striker for São Paulo Futebol Clube.

The 16 year old striker was a surprise inclusion in São Paulo's 2008 Libertadores Cup campaign where he was given the number 16 shirt.

He has been widely tipped to be as great as some of the biggest strikers to emerge from Brazil including Ronaldo and Pelé and he has been likened to AC Milan striker Alexandre Pato.

Roni has a contract with São Paulo FC until 26 April 2010.cite web |title=Jovem são-paulino estréia no banco de reservas |url=http://www.spfc.net/news.asp?nID=3293 |author=Lance! |language=Portuguese |accessdate=2008-03-05]
