Career

edit

Adilson Heleno began his career in Flamengo's youth category, but was little used in the professional team, being loaned most of the time.[1] Thus he was state champion twice, for Operário-MS and Fortaleza.

At the beginning of 1987, he was bought by Avaí from Flamengo, becoming champion and runner-up for 1988 Campeonato Catarinense with 17 goals scored. He transferred to Criciúma in the Brazilian Championship and was elected Silver Ball. The following year he arrived at Grêmio, where he won a series of titles such as the 1989 Copa do Brasil.[2] He played outside Brazil for Atlas and Barcelona Guayaquil, but spent most of his career with football teams in Santa Catarina. He was even honored at the state congress assembly due to his services in local football.[3][4][5]
