Born in Chapecó in the western area of the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil, Rafael started his career with Internacional.

Leiria.[1] On 20 June 2014, he returned to Brazil, signing for Vasco da Gama.[2] In May 2015 he was loaned to Bragantino to play in 2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B, due to lack of opportunity at Vasco.[3]

On 20 November 2017, Rafael was presented as a new signing for a second Paraíba club, Treze, but was released in April after the club was knocked out of the state championship.[7] [8] In August 2018 he signed for Chapecoense until the end of the 2018, however he made no appearances for the team and was released at the end of the season.[9] [10]
In January 2019, Rafael signed for Sobradinho, but after playing just one match in Campeonato Brasiliense he moved to América-RN.[11] [12] In December 2019 he signed for Gama.[13]
