Lucas Ribamar Lopes dos Santos Bibiano (born 21 May 1997), commonly known as Ribamar, is a Brazilian footballer who currently plays as a striker for 1860 Munich.
Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Ribamar was raised by his mother who worked at a supermarket. He successfully went on trial at CFZ do Rio but not being able to afford the costs of training he did not stay there. Next, he trialled with Botafogo where he was accepted and whom he subsequently joined aged 14.
Having scored 17 goals in 37 games and become top scorer of the "Octavio Pinto Guimaraes" tournament in 2015, he was promoted to Botafogo's first team in 2016.
In early July 2016, Ribamar agreed to join the Apollon for a €2.5 million transfer fee. However, the Cypriot club withdrew from the contract.
In late July 2016, he joined 1860 Munich on a five-year contract, for a reported €2.5 million transfer fee.
