Born in Brazil, Bruno was raised in Japan, his maternal family country. He also holds Japanese citizenship.[4]
Bruno was sent out on loan to the Japan Football League club, Machida Zelvia before returning and being sent out on loan again, this time with S.League club, Albirex Niigata Singapore on loan from the parent club in Japan. He made his debut in the 26 July 2010 clash against Balestier Khalsa, in the 1–1 draw.[5] He scored 3 goals in the 2011 Singapore League Cup including a double in the quarter-finals against Geylang United.[6] Bruno helped Albirex Niigata Singapore to lift the Singapore League Cup.
In 2012, Bruno returned to parent club, Albirex Niigata. He played a couple of matches during pre-season and was given the squad number 27. However, he found first team opportunities hard to come by, only being named on the substitute's bench once.
Bruno then signed with Albirex Niigata Singapore on a permanent basis for the 2013 S.League season upon expiration of his contract. The official announcement was made on 6 December 2012. Albirex Niigata Singapore finished second runner-up in the battle for second place, after a 3–1 defeat to Home United at Bishan Stadium during their last match day of the season, in which the White Swans needed a victory against the Protectors. He made 32 appearances and scored 7 goals in all competitions.
In November 2013, Bruno signed with S.League rival Home United.[7]
On 23 December 2014, Bruno signed with Geylang International in the upcoming 2015 S.League campaign, where he was reunited with former Albirex Niigata Singapore teammates Tatsuro Inui, Kento Fukuda, and Yuki Ichikawa. On 4 October 2015, he scored a hat-trick against Courts Young Lions, ending Geylang International's nine-game winless streak.
Brunep returned to Japan to play for the J2 League team FC Gifu in 2016.
Bruno was signed by Negeri Sembilan FA, a club in playing in the Malaysia Premier League in 2017. After good performances in the season, during which he scored 11 league goals, he was transferred to rival club in the same league, Terengganu II in early 2018.[8]
Later in April the same year, he was brought to the Terengganu II's main team, Terengganu on a short-term basis.[9] He returned to Terengganu II after Terengganu I secured another import player in June 2018.[10]
In 2021, Terengganu has decided not to extend Bruno's contract and release him.[11] Bruno was in negotiations with Chonburi in Thai League 1 but discussions were unsuccessful due to the COVID-19 situation in Thailand.
Back to Malaysia
Bruno signed a one-year contract with PDRM.[12] On 10 December 2023, he scored his first hat-trick for the club in the 2023 Malaysia Super League fixture against Kelantan in a 7–2 win.
