Club career

Luverdense

Born in Tangará da Serra, Mato Grosso, Ryller represented Mixto and Luverdense as a youth.[3] Promoted to the latter's first team for the 2014 campaign, he made his senior debut on 22 January of that year, coming on as a substitute for Júlio Terceiro in a 1–0 Campeonato Mato-Grossense home win against CEOV.[4]

Ryller established himself as a regular at Luverdense from the 2015 season onwards, and extended his contract until December 2017 in May.[5] He scored his first senior goal on 29 July, in a 1–2 away loss against Boa Esporte for the Série B championship.[6]

On 28 December 2016, the club rejected an offer from Coritiba to secure Ryller's services.[7] In the 2017 campaign, he contributed with eight goals in 44 appearances overall, and also helped the club to win the 2017 Copa Verde.[8]

Braga

Amidst interest from Vasco da Gama,[9] Ryller moved abroad and signed with Portuguese club Braga on 16 January 2018, after agreeing to a deal which would keep him in the club until 2022.[10] [11] He made his Primeira Liga debut on 10 February 2018, replacing Paulinho in a 3–1 home win against Vitória de Setúbal.[12] However, he spent the remainder of the campaign playing for the reserve team in LigaPro.

Ryller returned to the main squad for the 2018–19 season, but was mainly used as a substitute.

Red Bull Bragantino (loan)

On 19 June 2019, Ryller returned to his home country after being loaned to second division side Red Bull Bragantino for one year.[13] He scored three goals in 17 appearances during the 2019 Série B, helping in their promotion to the Série A as champions.

On 24 June 2020, Ryller's loan was extended for a further year.[14] He made his debut in the top tier of Brazilian football on 9 August, starting in a 1–1 away draw against Santos.[15]

Al-Fayha

On 3 August 2021, Ryller joined Saudi Arabian club Al-Fayha.[16] On 19 May 2022, he won the 2022 King Cup Final with Al-Fayha against Al Hilal.[17]

Vitória

On 1 July 2024, Ryller joined Vitória on a free transfer.[18]
