He made his senior debut with the former on 3 March 2019, coming on as a late substitute for Cesinha in a 3–0 Campeonato Paulista Série A2 away win over Taubaté.[1]

Patrick scored his first senior goal on 24 March 2019, netting the opener in a 2–1 home win over Votuporanguense.[2] [3] A backup option in his first years, he became a starter in the 2021 Série D.[4]

Patrick helped Lusa to win the 2022 Paulista A2 as a starter, being named the best defender of the competition.[5] On 20 April 2022, he renewed his contract until August 2025, and agreed to a loan deal with Série C side ABC;[6] his new club confirmed the deal two days later.[7]

Back to Lusa for the 2023 season, Patrick was again a starter after recovering from an injury. On 10 April 2024, he was loaned to Série B side Novorizontino until the end of the year, with a buyout clause.[8]
