He was hired by the extinct Sporting, and in 1973 he arrived at Tuna Luso, where he would play for most of his career. He gained the nickname "Cimento" because Capanema, his hometown, is known as the cement capital. In 1977 he was elected the best goalkeeper in the Brazilian Championship, receiving the Silver Ball.
