Club career

edit

Born in Ribeirão Claro, Paraná, Bianqui joined Londrina's youth setup in March 2017, from Grêmio Ourinhos [pt], and signed a professional contract with the club in October of that year.[1] He made his first team debut on 20 January 2019, coming on as a second-half substitute for Marcinho in a 0–0 Campeonato Paranaense away draw against Cianorte.[2]

Bianqui scored his first senior goal on 24 January 2019, netting his team's third in a 3–0 away win over Cascavel CR.[3] He became a regular starter during the 2020 season, as the club achieved promotion from the Série C.

On 17 December 2021, Bianqui signed a contract with Maringá until the end of 2025, after the club bought 50% of his economic rights.[4] The following 8 April, he was announced at Chapecoense on loan for the remainder of the year.[5]

Back to Maringá for the 2023 season,[6] Bianqui was a regular starter as the club reached the 2023 Campeonato Paranaense finals. On 19 April, he and teammates Marcos Vinícius and Vilar were loaned to Série A side Coritiba until the end of the year.[7]
