Freitas was born in Rio de Janeiro, and was a youth product of Flamengo. On 28 January 2020, after his contract expired, he moved abroad and signed an 18-month deal with La Liga side Real Valladolid. [1]
After featuring for the Juvenil A side, Freitas first appeared with the main squad on 16 January 2021, coming on as an extra-time substitute for injured Javi Sánchez in a 4–1 away routing of SCR Peña Deportiva, for the season's Copa del Rey.

On 31 August 2022, after finishing his formation, Freitas was loaned to Liga Portugal 2 side Moreirense for one year. [6] He was rarely used as the club achieved promotion as champions, and moved to Série B side Chapecoense also in a temporary deal on 30 June 2023. [7]
A regular starter at Chape, Freitas joined Juventude on loan for the 2024 season on 31 December 2023. [8]
