Thiago Eduardo de Andrade (born 31 October 2000) is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Major League Soccer club Toronto FC.

Early life

Born in Araras, Andrade began his youth career at Fluminense. He later joined Portuguese club Portimonense for six months, before returning to Brazil to join Bahia. He was the top scorer in the Brazil U20 Cup in 2020, earning a call-up to the first team the following year.

Club career

Andrade made his professional debut for Bahia on 6 January 2021 against Grêmio, starting in a 2–1 defeat. He scored his first goal a couple weeks later on 20 January in a 1–0 victory over Athletico Paranaense. In April 2021, he agreed to a mutual termination of his contract with the club.

In April 2021, Andrade joined Major League Soccer club New York City FC on a contract through 2024, with an option for 2025. He made his debut for the club on 19 June 2021, scoring his first goal in the match. In April 2023, Andrade was loaned to Campeonato Brasileiro Série A club Athletico Paranaense on a season-long loan deal with a purchase option. At the end of the year, Athletico Paranaense opted to decline the purchase option and he returned to New York City. In February 2024, he was sent on a season-long loan to Chinese Super League club Shenzhen Peng City.

In December 2024, Andrade was selected by San Diego FC in the 2024 MLS Expansion Draft, before immediately being traded to Toronto FC in exchange for a first round pick in the 2025 MLS SuperDraft and $250,000 in conditional General Allocation Money.
