Club career

Early career

Born in São Luís, Maranhão, Sousa began his career at his hometown team Moto Club's youth setup before moving to Palmeiras in 2005, aged 15.

On 13 November 2009, Sousa joined Operário, and made his debut for the club the following 17 January, by starting in a 1–0 home win against Cascavel CR, for the year's Campeonato Paranaense. He scored his first goal for the club on 31 March, netting his team's second in a 2–2 home draw against the same opponent, but was released in April after scoring only two goals.
