Ivan Manuel Amorim dos Santos (born 22 September 1988) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for S.C. Freamunde as a midfielder.

Football career

Born in Espinho, Santos made his Primeira Liga debuts in 2007–08 with Boavista FC, and scored in his last appearance of the season, a 1–2 away loss against Sporting Clube de Portugal. In July 2008, he signed a three-year contract with S.L. Benfica, but was immediately loaned to Boavista, with the northern club now in the second division for irregularities.

After appearing regularly for the Porto side, again relegated, Santos was loaned once more for the 2009–10 campaign, joining another team in the second level, freshly-promoted A.D. Carregado. Shortly after, he dropped down to division three and moved, in the same predicament, to Atlético Clube de Portugal.

In 2010–11, Santos played with hometown's S.C. Espinho, scoring three goals for an eventual seventh-place finish in the third tier. For the following season he returned to the second division, signing for U.D. Oliveirense and helping it reach the semi-finals of the Portuguese Cup for the first time ever.
