Cícero Santos (born 26 August 1984), simply known as Cícero, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for São Paulo FC as a central or attacking midfielder.

During his time at Fluminense, Cícero proved himself to be a versatile player. He featured as an attacking midfielder, a defensive midfielder, a wide player and a striker. Cícero featured heavily in Fluminense's Copa Libertadores Campaign of 2008, scoring vital goals in the group stages, including a beautiful free kick in the 6–0 demolition of Arsenal de Sarandí at the Maracaña in Rio de Janeiro. Cícero was the only Flu player to convert his penalty kick during the shoot out in the final defeat against LDU Quito of Ecuador.

Cicero made his Bundesliga debut for Hertha on 17 August 2008 against Eintracht Frankfurt. He established himself as a regular, playing all but one game in the 2008–09 season.

After one and half year playing for São Paulo, on 1 January 2013, Brazilian press confirmed that Cícero will break his contract with the club for 2013 season.

On 8 January 2013 Cícero signed a two-year deal with Santos. Cícero finished the 2013 Campeonato Paulista as the club's second topscorer, only behind Neymar.

In July 2014, Cícero re-joined Fluminense for his third spell at the club.

In December of 2016, Cícero has returned to São Paulo. After Cícero scored a hat-trick against PSTC, in a 4-2 winning match valid for 2017 Copa do Brasil, coach Rogério Ceni praised him as a key player of squad. According Ceni: "He is a 32 year-old player, that adds experience, with a good head game and a good finalization from out of area."
