Arnaldo Edi Lopes da Silva (born 7 July 1982), known as Edinho, is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Vitória F.C. as a striker.
Edinho was born in Aveiro, of Guinea-Bissauan descent. After making his professional debuts with S.C. Braga, and playing there without much impact, he served two loans from 2005 to 2007; in the second he scored six goals for Gil Vicente FC, in the second division.
Prior to the start of the 2007–08 season Edinho was released by Braga, joining Vitória F.C. in the Primeira Liga. In January 2008 he was loaned to AEK Athens F.C. in Greece: not an undisputed starter at Setúbal, he put up impressive performances for his new club in his first months, managing to net in five straight games, against Skoda Xanthi F.C. at home (3–0), at OFI Crete (1–4), at home against Aris FC (1–1) and away against Apollon Kalamarias FC (0–1), topping it with another in the 4–0 smashing of arch-rivals Olympiacos FC.
On 6 May 2008, the move to AEK was made permanent in a €500,000 deal and Edinho started the new campaign in fashion, scoring once and winning a penalty kick against rivals Panathinaikos F.C. in a 2–1 home win, in the first derby of the year.
