Club career

edit

Roberto was born in Picos, Piauí. A Bahia youth graduate, he made his professional debut on 30 May 2009, coming on as a second-half substitute for Ávine in a 0–0 away draw against Portuguesa.

Roberto scored his first professional goals seven days later, netting a double in a 4–0 home routing of ABC. Released by the club in 2011, he subsequently represented Bahia de Feira, Campinense, Fluminense de Feira, Feirense and Icasa before signing for Atlético Paranaense on 14 December 2013; he was, however, immediately loaned to Ferroviária.[1]

On 21 May 2014 Roberto was loaned to Náutico, until the end of the year.[2] On 15 May 2015, after another spell at Ferroviária, he joined Bragantino, still owned by Atlético.[3]

On 25 August 2015 Roberto returned to Furacão.[4] He made his Série A debut on 17 September, starting in a 1–2 home loss against Grêmio.[5]
