Club career

Early career

Born in Salgueiro, Pernambuco, Santos joined Salgueiro Atlético Clube's youth setup in 2005 after starting out at Escolinha de Futebol do Tête. [2] He made his debut for the former in 2008, appearing rarely in the Série C.

In summer 2010, after a loan stint at Araripina Futebol Clube, [3] Santos moved abroad, joining C.D. Trofense. He made his debut on 29 August, starting and scoring his team's only in a 2–1 Segunda Liga away loss against Gil Vicente FC. [4]

After being rarely used during his first season, Santos appeared regularly during his second, scoring a career-best six goals in 28 matches. [3]

Braga

On 11 July 2012, Santos signed a two-year contract with S.C. Braga, initially being assigned to the reserves also in the second tier. [5] After being an ever-present figure for the latter, he made his first-team – and Primeira Liga – debut on 9 March of the following year, playing the full 90 minutes of a 2–0 home win over C.S. Marítimo. [6]

Santos scored his first goal in the Portuguese top flight on 3 May 2013, his team's second in the 3–2 victory at Moreirense FC. [7] On 25 September he signed a new five-year deal with a €20 million clause, [8] after the Minho side refused an offer from Stade Rennais FC. [9]

Santos was an undisputed starter the following two campaigns, attracting interest from a number of teams, one of them being AS Monaco FC. [10]

Valencia

On 27 August 2015, Santos agreed to a five-year deal with Valencia CF for a fee of €9.5m. [11] [12] [13] His maiden appearance in La Liga occurred on 22 September, as he featured the entire 1–0 away loss against RCD Espanyol. [14]

Santos had subsequent loan spells in his country's Série A, with São Paulo FC and Esporte Clube Vitória. [15] [16]

Later career

On 24 January 2019, Santos joined Al Ahli Saudi FC. [17] On 13 August, he made a return to Portugal on a season-long loan to Rio Ave FC, [18] signing a permanent contract with the latter club the following May. [19]

On 23 January 2025, Santos moved to fellow top-tier AVS Futebol SAD on a deal until June 2026. [20]
