Pedro Tonon Geromel (born 21 September 1985) is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Grêmio as a central defender.
Born in São Paulo, Geromel moved to Portugal from Palmeiras along with his team-mate Elias, signing with G.D. Chaves at only 18 years-old, finishing his footballing formation there, after which he made his professional debuts in the 2004–05 season, with the northern club in the second division.
Geromel's performances attracted the attention of Primeira Liga club Vitória SC. At Guimarães, after making his debut in a 0–2 derby home loss against S.C. Braga, he eventually became an undisputed first-choice, as the Minho team promoted from the second level and achieved qualification to the UEFA Champions League in just two seasons.
In an online voting, Geromel was considered as 2007–08's best player in the Portuguese League, beating FC Porto's Lisandro López and Lucho González. On 30 June 2008 he moved to Bundesliga side 1. FC Köln, recently promoted to the top division.
