Neuciano de Jesus Gusmão (Bulgarian: Неусиано де Жезуш Гузмао; born 26 December 1988), commonly known as Cicinho (Bulgarian: Сисиньо), is a professional footballer who plays as a right back for Brasileiro Série A club Bahia. Born in Brazil, he played for the Bulgaria national team.

Cicinho made his professional debut aged 19 for Remo, with whom he won two successive Campeonato Paraense championships, before moved to Juventude in December 2008. After Juventude's relegation from the Série B, Cicinho was transferred to Brasiliense, where he won Campeonato Brasiliense in 2011.

In November 2011, Cicinho joined Série A club Ponte Preta. In June 2013 he moved to Santos for a fee of €1.5 million and became an integral member of the club's 2015 Campeonato Paulista title. Two years later, he joined Ludogorets.
