Club career

edit

Born in São Paulo, Danielson started his senior career with lowly Grêmio Esportivo Inhumense. In the middle of 2003 he moved to Portugal, spending the following five years with Rio Ave FC (the first three seasons in the Primeira Liga and the following two in the second division, with promotion in 2008).[2]

In 2008, Danielson signed with Russian Football Premier League side FC Khimki. During his stint in the country, he claimed to have been arrested twice.[3]

Danielson returned to Portugal the following January transfer window, being loaned to F.C. Paços de Ferreira. Subsequently, he returned to his previous club, was released, and re-signed with Paços on a one-year contract.[4]

Danielson joined another Portuguese team in June 2010, moving to Madeira's C.D. Nacional. After one year in the Cypriot First Division with AC Omonia, he spent the next three seasons also in the Portuguese top flight with Gil Vicente F.C.[5] and Moreirense FC;[6] in the 2014–15 campaign, he was one of only three players to appear in every minute in the league.[7]

At the age of 35, Danielson signed with C.D. Cova da Piedade of the Portuguese second tier.[8] Until his retirement, he competed in the country's lower leagues and amateur football.[9][10]
