Born in Brasil, Cainan arrived in 2009 in Italy, being signed up by the newly formed L.C. Five Martina. He remained there for three seasons, contributing to the team's climb from Serie C2 to A2 (the result of 3 promotions in as many years) and to the victory of the Coppa Italia Serie B in 2012. [2]

In the summer of 2013 he moved to Cisternino. Also here, he was among the protagonists of a team that managed to promote from Serie C1 to Serie A, also winning his second Coppa Italia B in 2015.

In the 2017–18 season he made his debut in the top division, scoring a hat-trick in the victorious away match against Pescara. The following summer he was purchased by CAME Dosson with whom he scored 22 goals during the regular season, finishing second in the goalscoring charts. [3]

Holding a dual citizenship, on 17 January 2022 he was included in Italy's final list for the 2022 European Championship. [4]

With AE Palma Futsal, Cainan won the UEFA Futsal Champions League in the 2022–23 season, after a penalty shoot-out against Sporting CP. [5]

One month later, RSC Anderlecht Futsal announced the transfer of Cainan. [6] In his first season, Cainan scored 28 goals in 35 matches, with the club winning the Belgian Championship for a third time in a row. [7]
