Career

Summarize
Perspective

Born in Carandaí, Minas Gerais, Jajá played for local sides Betim and Arsenal–MG before finishing his formation with Americano.[2] He joined Goytacaz in 2018 for the year's Copa Rio, but left the club in April 2019.[3]

Jajá moved to Boavista shortly after leaving Goyta, but played in just one match before being loaned out to Aparecida for the Campeonato Goiano Segunda Divisão. On 30 December 2019, he was announced at Criciúma.[4]

Sparingly used, Jajá was presented at XV de Piracicaba on 23 October 2020, for the year's Copa Paulista.[5] A regular starter, he moved to Série B side Sampaio Corrêa on 25 February 2021, while still owned by Boavista.[6]

On 18 August 2021, after helping Sampaio to win the Campeonato Maranhense, Jajá moved abroad and signed for Botoșani in Romania.[7] He scored his first goals abroad on 7 February of the following year, netting a brace in a 4–0 home routing of Dinamo București.[8]

On 19 July 2022, UAE Pro League side Al-Nasr announced the signing of Jajá.[9] On 28 September, however, after just three appearances, he moved to fellow league team Dibba Al Fujairah.[10]

On 28 July 2023, Jajá joined J1 League team FC Tokyo.[11] Unable to establish himself as a starter, he was loaned to Sagan Tosu on 5 August 2024.[12]

On 14 January 2025, Jajá returned to his home country after agreeing to a deal with Portuguesa.[13] On 28 February, he was transferred to Goiás, with Lusa retaining 40% of his economic rights.[14]
