He played for many Brazilian club teams, such as Goiás, Botafogo, Corinthians, Vitória, Fluminense, Cruzeiro and Vila Nova and several lower-division teams in Brazil.

After this he became a journeyman and never played for the same team for more than one season at most. He scored a controversial goal against Universidad Católica in a Copa Libertadores match.

He named the stylish goal "Tuleta" after his name.According to himself, he reached the mark of thousand goals in 2014, at 44 years old.
This number was only reached, however, by counting goals in friendlies, commemorative games and amateur football.
