Bernardo Lino Castro Paes Vasconcelos (born 10 June 1979) is a Portuguese footballer who plays as a striker.
In a professional career which spanned nearly 15 years he played mostly in Cyprus, representing five teams.
Born in Lisbon, Vasconcelos played for three teams early in his career, including the reserves of local club S.L. Benfica. In the 2002–03 season he helped F.C. Alverca return to the Primeira Liga after one year of absence, scoring once and appearing in less than half of the league's matches.
In January 2004, after solid performances with S.C.U. Torreense in the third division, Vasconcelos moved to the Netherlands and signed with RKC Waalwijk in the Eredivisie, netting four goals to help the North Brabant side retain its top level status. Subsequently he returned to his country with U.D. Leiria, for what would be his only Portuguese top flight experience – after only two games (36 minutes), he returned to his previous team in the following transfer window.
Vasconcelos left RKC in the 2005 summer, then played one year in Portugal with G.D. Estoril Praia. He then moved to Cyprus and signed for APOP Kinyras FC, scoring at an impressive rate in the division two and adding 12 in 26 games in his first season in the Cypriot First Division, which he split between APOP and AC Omonia.
