Tiago Pagnussat

Tiago Pagnussat (born 17 June 1990) is a Brazilian footballer who plays for J.League club Cerezo Osaka as a central defender.

Born in São Jorge d'Oeste, Paraná, Tiago graduated from Criciúma's youth setup, but failed to appear in any official matches for the club. In July 2011 he moved to Vila Aurora, appearing sparingly in Série D.

On 24 August 2011 Tiago joined Caxias. Initially a backup, he appeared in 14 matches during the campaign, scoring two goals.

In January 2013 Tiago signed an 18-month deal with Guarani. Despite being a starter in the year's Campeonato Paulista (which the club finished dead last), he rescinded his link in May, and eventually returned to Caxias.

In August 2014, after impressing with the latter in both Campeonato Gaúcho and Série C, Tiago signed a four-year deal with Série A side Atlético Mineiro. He made his debut in the competition on 25 October, netting his side's first through a direct free kick in a 3–2 home win against Sport Recife.
