Sosthenes José Santos Salles (born 18 November 1987), known as Neto Berola, is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Coritiba as a forward.

Club career[edit]

Neto Berola was born in Itabuna, Bahia, and after impressing for an amateur side of Buerarema, joined Itabuna's under-20 squad in 2007. He was promoted to the main squad in the following year, appearing regularly but mainly as a substitute. 2 On 20 April 2009, after scoring 13 goals for the side in that year's Campeonato Baiano, Neto Berola moved to fellow state team Vitória.[1] He made his Série A debut on 4 July, replacing Elkeson in a 1–2 away loss against Flamengo.

Neto Berola scored his first goal in the main category of Brazilian football on 16 August 2009, netting his team's second in a 2–3 loss at Goiás. He finished the campaign with 20 appearances and four goals, as Leão narrowly avoided relegation.

On 25 May 2010 Neto Berola signed a three-year deal with Atlético Mineiro.[2] An undisputed starter for the side, he was sidelined for three months due to a back injury in 2012.[3]

On 31 August 2012 Neto Berola renewed with Atlético, signing until the end of 2016.[4] On 23 June 2014 he was loaned to Al Wasl,[5] but returned to Brazil on 2 March of the following year after rescinding his contract early.[6]

On 19 May 2015 Neto Berola was loaned to Santos.[7] On 21 July of the following year, after his loan spell at Santos expired, he moved to Coritiba after rescinding his contract with Galo.[8]
