Revealed by the youth sectors of Ceará, Cristiano was part of the champion squads of the Copa do Nordeste and the Brazilian Under-23 Championship in 2020.[1] Without getting much space, he was later loaned to EC São José, where he stood out as the team's top scorer. He was traded to Iwate Grulla Morioka where he played for two seasons,[2] returning to Brazil in 2024 to defend Volta Redonda.[3][4]
