Career

Red Bull Brasil / Red Bull Bragantino

Born in Santos, São Paulo, Phelipe represented the youth sides of Santos and Portuguesa Santista before joining Red Bull Brasil in 2016.[1] He made his senior debut for the latter club on 22 September 2018, coming on as a second-half substitute and scoring in a 3–1 home win over Desportivo Brasil in the Copa Paulista.[2][3]

Phelipe became a Red Bull Bragantino player when Red Bull Brasil merged with Clube Atlético Bragantino in April 2019.[4] He made his Série B debut on 18 May, replacing Barreto late into a 0–1 away loss to Londrina.[5] Phelipe featured in just one further match for Bragantino during the campaign, as his side achieved Série A promotion as champions.

Red Bull Salzburg

On 18 July 2019, Austrian team Red Bull Salzburg announced the signing of Phelipe on a five-year contract.[6]

Various loans

Phelipe was immediately sent on loan to Liefering for the 2019–20 season,[7] being used mainly as a substitute and scoring four goals as the club finished third in the 2. Liga. In August 2020, he returned to his former side Red Bull Bragantino on loan for one year.[8] He made his Série A debut on the 19th that month, replacing Morato and scoring the winner in a 2–1 home success over Fluminense.[9]

Phelipe however did not establish himself on his return at Bragantino, and on 28 July 2021 moved to Swiss Super League club Lugano on another one-year loan deal, joining several compatriots including manager Abel Braga.[10] He was very rarely used after Mattia Croci-Torti replaced Braga, and on 11 February 2022 Lugano announced the early termination of Phelipe's loan.[11] The next day, Red Bull Salzburg also terminated his deal.[12]

Atlético Goianiense

Phelipe joined Série A club Atlético Goianiense as a free agent on 1 March 2022.[13] He only made two appearances for the Dragão, both in the state league.

Various loans

On 14 April 2022, Phelipe was loaned out to Náutico in the second division.[14] In the first half of 2023, he represented in quick succession Botafogo and Paysandu, also on loan.

Politehnica Iași

On 29 June 2023, Phelipe signed a two-year deal with Romanian side Politehnica Iași, newly promoted to the Liga I.[15] He scored his first goals on 30 July, his double helping to a 3–1 away league win over defending champion Farul Constanța.[16]

FCSB

On 8 December 2023, Iași chairman Cornel Șfaițer announced that Phelipe would be transferred to fellow league club FCSB for 200,000 and 20% interest on a future sale, and he would join his new team when the winter transfer window opens.[17] The move was confirmed by FCSB on 24 December.[18]

Style of play

Phelipe is comfortable being deployed as an attacking midfielder or in several more offensive positions, even as a main striker, but his preferred role is that of a winger. He is regarded as a technical player who can easily beat opponents in one-on-one situations, and his passing often disrupts enemy defenses. Thus, Phelipe is a target of numerous tackles which can take him out of play because of his fragile body frame. It has been noted that he finds it more difficult to help his teammates defend when playing on the wing, rather than in a more central role.[19]

Personal life

Phelipe is married and has one child.[19]
