Ronny Heberson Furtado de Araújo (born 11 May 1986), known simply as Ronny, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays mainly as a left midfielder but also as a left back.

He signed with Sporting Clube de Portugal at the age of 20, but could never impose himself in the first team. Subsequently, he played several seasons with Hertha BSC, having joined in 2010.

Born in Fortaleza, Ronny began his professional career with Sport Club Corinthians Paulista, spending three seasons with the club but appearing mainly for the reserve team. After his contract ended in July 2006, he moved to Sporting Clube de Portugal.

Since joining Sporting, Ronny struggled to gain first-choice status: in the 2006–07 season, he battled with internationals Marco Caneira and Rodrigo Tello to finish with 12 Primeira Liga appearances, although he would score a memorable goal in an 88th minute 1–0 away win against Associação Naval 1º de Maio on 26 November 2006 – his free kick was unofficially measured according to some sources and YouTube at 211 km/h.

Ronny began the 2007–08 campaign as starter, but with the arrival in January of Leandro Grimi from A.C. Milan lost his position, playing just six games in his third year. For 2009–10, only being third or fourth-choice at Sporting, he was loaned to U.D. Leiria, freshly returned to the top division.
