Career

edit

Revealed by Novorizontino, Maurício was called up to the Brazil national team by coach of the Paulo Roberto Falcão in the early 1990s. He had a spell on loan at Portuguesa, but due to failures, he did not establish himself.[1] He later returned to Novorizontino, being part of the 1994 Série C champion squad. In 1995 he was hired by Corinthians, where he remained in 2001 and won several titles, most as a substitute.[2] He was also Carioca champion at Fluminense and retired for the first time in 2003, at Juventude. He returned in 2006 and defended Noroeste and São Bento before retiring permanently.[3]
