Adryan Oliveira Tavares, or simply Adryan (born 10 August 1994), is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Flamengo as an attacking midfield playmaker. He has also represented Brazil at various age groups up to under-20.

Adryan has always been treated as a prolific player with creativity.

Champion for Flamengo at youth level in 2010, the midfielder was selected, at that time aged 16, to play in the 2011 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior (which allowed players under 18 years of age), was one of the top players in the tournament and finished as champion.

After the good campaign in the Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo gave him a chance to train in the pre-season preparation with the professional team to fill the void left by Ronaldinho. He debuted in a friendly match against Londrina at Estádio do Café on February 9, 2011. He spent little time training with the professional team as he was selected to play with the Brazil U-17 team in the 2011 South American Under-17 Football Championship, being champion.

A few months later he was again selected to play in the Brazil U-17 team, but this at a higher level in the 2011 FIFA U-17 World Cup. During the competition he was linked with Manchester United. On 1 July 2012, Adryan played his first game for the Brazilian Série A, against Atlético Goianiense, and he scored in the 3–2 Flamengo victory. On September 16, 2012 he scored a freekick at the age of 16 for the Flamengo first team to help earn Flamengo a draw against Grêmio.
