He spent the 2019 season on loan at Fluminense, making 65 appearances and scoring twice. In January 2020, he joined Grêmio also on loan, making only five appearances for the side before the stoppage of football in Brazil due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic.

[9] On the 22nd matchday of the season, he again provided an assist to Kevin Volland with a subtle dip at FC Nantes. [10]
