Early career

Born in Nova Lima, Minas Gerais, Erick played for social projects in his hometown before having a trial at Figueirense at the age of 17.

Initially a right-back, he played as a centre-back before establishing himself as a defensive midfielder. ^[1]

Erick scored his first goal for Furacão on 27 January 2019, netting the opener in a 2–0 away win over Rio Branco-PR; it was also his first start for the club. ^[9] He later started to feature with the main squad, and made his Série A debut on 5 May, starting in a 1–1 away draw against Chapecoense. ^[10]

Erick scored his first goal in the top tier on 10 October 2019, netting Athletico's second in a 2–2 away draw against Corinthians. The following 14 January, after establishing himself as a first team member, he renewed his contract with the club until 2025. ^[11]
