Career

[edit]

Born in Santos, São Paulo,[1] Falcão joined Santos' youth setup at the age of eight, from Gremetal; initially a member of the futsal team, he later moved to their football categories. In September 2020, aged 15, he was promoted to the club's under-17 team.[2]

On 25 November 2021, Falcão signed his first professional contract with Peixe, after agreeing to a three-year deal.[3] In January 2024, he was promoted to the first team for trainings,[4] and was an unused substitute in some matches of the 2024 Campeonato Paulista before suffering a knee injury in February.[5]

On 26 July 2024, Falcão further extended his link with Santos until October 2026.[6] He only returned to action in March 2025 with the under-20 side,[7] and helped them to win the Campeonato Paulista Sub-20 [pt] after saving penalties in the shootouts in the semi-final and the final.[8]

On 9 March 2026, Falcão renewed his contract with Peixe until January 2029.[9]
