He left Flamengo in 1991 to play with Guarani, joining Kashiwa Reysol of Japan in 1993 and returning to Brazil in 1995 to defend Fluminense.[2] He helped the club win the Campeonato Carioca in 1995.[4] He was part of the Grêmio squad that won the 1996 Série A. After playing for several different clubs, he retired in 2002 while defending Uberlândia.[2]

He began his coaching career in 2007 as America's head coach. After commanding weaker teams, such as Cabofriense, Volta Redonda and Duque de Caxias, he was invited by Jorginho to be his assistant coach.
