Playing career

In the summer of 2008, Rômulo signed with Azerbaijan Premier League side Khazar Lankaran. Following a year in Azerbaijan he returned to Brazil for family reasons, and signed for Ceará.^[1]

Following his release from Khazar, Rômulo claim that he had not been paid in full for his time with Khazar, a matter that was taken to FIFA. In April 2012 FIFA recognised that the debt to Rômulo had been paid by Khazar on 30 March 2012 and that the 6 points stripped from Khazar was a mistake and they would be given back to them.^[2]
