Born in Rio de Janeiro, Príncipe started his career when he was 13 years old at CFZ, a club originally created by former Brazilian football legend Zico. He departed the club and spent two years at Vasco da Gama, then another year at Flamengo. After that, he joined Corinthians and won the 2014 U20 Campeonato Paulista, 2014 U20 Campeonato Brasileiro and the 2015 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior, also being a runner up at the 2014 and 2016 editions.[2]

Oeste (loan)

Príncipe was loaned to Oeste on 3 February for the remaining of the year as part of the squad for the 2016 Campeonato Paulista and 2016 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B.[3]

He made his professional debut as part of the starting team against Corinthians on 21 February. He participated in seven games during the team's campaign at the Campeonato Paulista and also on the debut at the Série B. He was called back by Corinthians on 15 May.[4]

After six months on loan with Le Havre in France, he signed in January 2019 with Guarani again on loan for one year.[5]

In 2022, he had a stint with Bulgarian team Krumovgrad, which at the time played in the country's third league.[6]
