Born in Santos, São Paulo, Medeiros joined Santos' youth setup in 2006, aged ten.[1] After progressing through the club's youth setup, he was promoted to the main squad on 29 September 2015 by manager Dorival Júnior.[2]
Medeiros made his first team – and Série A – debut on 6 December 2015, coming on as a second-half substitute for fellow youth graduate Alison in a 5–1 home routing of Atlético Paranaense.[3] He scored his first senior goal the following 11 May, netting the last in a 3–0 Copa do Brasil away win against Galvez.[4]

Upon returning from loan, Medeiros only featured for Santos' B-team.
On 24 January 2019, Medeiros signed for Bahia after his contract with Peixe expired.[7] He left the club at the end of May 2019, where his contract expired.[8]
On 24 September 2019, he signed a 4-year contract with the Portuguese Primeira Liga club Portimonense.[9]
He signed for Albanian club Egnatia on 18 July 2022.[10]
