Early life

edit

Queiroz was born in 2003 in São Paulo, Brazil. In 2007, her family moved to Weston, Florida and settled until 2014 when they moved to Madrid, Spain.[3][4][5] She was part of the Atlético Madrid academy until 2017.[6]

Club career

edit

Queiroz played in the youth teams of Atlético Madrid. She started her senior career in 2018 at Primera División club Madrid CFF.[7] On 9 December 2018, she made her professional debut as a 15-year-old in a 0–7 defeat against Barcelona.[8] Queiroz played 14 matches and scored one goal with Madrid until February 2020.

On 17 July 2020, Barcelona announced the signing of Queiroz for an undisclosed fee on a three-year deal.[9][10] On 12 August 2021, Levante signed Gio on a one–year loan deal until the end of the 2021–22 season.[11][12] She made her official debut for Levante in qualification for the 2021–22 UEFA Women's Champions League, entering the match against Celtic as a substitute.[13] She scored her first goals for the club in the final of qualifying Round 1 against Rosenborg. She entered the match as a substitute and scored twice in extra time, including the match-winning goal that helped Levante advance to Round 2 of qualifying.[14]

In 2022, Queiroz won the Samba Gold Feminino 2021 after defeating 29 opponents. The medal honors the best Brazilian player working abroad and was given to the women's category for the first time.[15]

In September 2022, Queiroz was sold to Arsenal for around €40,000, with the club immediately sending her on loan to Everton for the season;[16] amid injuries at Arsenal, however, was recalled the following January.[17] They had intended to send her on another loan for the 2023–24 season, but failed to come to an agreement before the season, also meaning they were unable to register her at the club.[18] She was then loaned back to her first senior club, Madrid CFF, in January 2024.[19]

On 2 August 2024, it was announced that Queiroz had completed a transfer back to Atlético Madrid.[20]
