Born in Rio de Janeiro, João Lopes was a Flamengo youth graduate. In January 2017, after failing to make a first team breakthrough, he moved to Portuguesa.[1]
Initially a backup to veteran Ricardo Berna, João Lopes made his senior debut on 11 October 2017, starting in a 1–1 Copa Paulista away draw against Linense.[2] On 28 November, he renewed his contract with the club until the end of 2018.[3]
On 2 July 2018, after being a regular starter in the Campeonato Paulista Série A2, João Lopes was loaned to Portuguese Primeira Liga side Santa Clara for one year,[4] while also renewing his contract with Lusa until 2021.[5] A backup to Marco Pereira, he made his debut abroad on 27 April 2019, starting in a 0–0 home draw against Vitória de Setúbal.[6]
On 5 July 2019, João Lopes' loan to Santa Clara was extended for a further season;[7] his contract with Portuguesa was also extended until 2022.[8] The following 19 January, after being demoted to third-choice after the arrival of André Ferreira, he terminated his loan deal.[9]
On 29 January 2020, João Lopes agreed to a two-year contract with Fluminense in the Série A.[10] He left the club in December 2021 after his contract expired.[11]
