Everton Giovanella (born 13 September 1970 in Caxias do Sul) is a Brazilian retired footballer who played as a defensive midfielder.
He was best known for tireless physical display, and played most of his professional career in Spain – one full decade – namely being an important part in Celta's domestic and European consolidation.
Having started playing with a modest club in native Brazil, Giovanella eventually signed with Série A's Sport Club Internacional in Porto Alegre, with little impact. In the 1993 summer he emigrated to Portugal, playing one season each with Primeira Liga sides F.C. Tirsense, G.D. Estoril Praia and C.F. Os Belenenses.
For the 1996–97 campaign Giovanella moved to Spain, first achieving La Liga promotion with UD Salamanca then moving to Celta de Vigo. At both teams, he reunited with former Belenenses teammate Catanha and, with the Galicians, played an important role in their domestic and European exploits, but also unluckily injured Deportivo de La Coruña's Manuel Pablo in a derby on 30 September 2001.
