Career

He had a lightning spell at Jabaquara without playing, and at the request of coach Zezé Moreira, he was part of the champion squad of the 1951 Campeonato Carioca and the Copa Rio with Fluminense.[4]

He returned to Santos, his formative club in 1953, but without playing many games. He was signed by SE Palmeiras and then loaned to São Bento de Sorocaba. At Palmeiras he was runner-up in the state in 1954, and after 150 appearances, he was loaned to Santos where he played just one game.[5]

In São Paulo fc he was champion of São Paulo in 1957, later he played for XV de Piracicaba and Ferroviária de Araraquara. Returned to Santos in 1960 and was again state champion. In 1962 he moved to Mexican football where he played until 1968, when he retired. He was Mexican champion with Toluca in his last season as a player.
