adriano neves pereira -lrb- born 24 may 1979 in capão da canoa , rio grande do sul , brazil -rrb- , commonly known as adriano chuva , is a brazilian footballer who currently plays for atlético sorocaba , primarily as a striker .
a tall , powerful forward , he is known for his pace , tactical awareness , speed , dribbling and accurate shooting .
chuva is perhaps best described as a journeyman , namely because he has turned out for over twelve different clubs since he started his professional career with juventude in 1997 .
however , despite his inability to settle , he has nevertheless proved himself to be a prolific goal-scorer wherever he has happened to play .
born adriano neves pereira he was given his nickname , chuva , at a young age by his mother simone in deference to a family friend of the same name whom she thought adriano resembled .
