Career
André Luís has played for several Brazilian clubs, mainly on loan from either Cruzeiro, who owned his rights from 2003 as a youth until 2010, or from Boavista-RJ between 2010 and 2016, although he never represented either of these clubs in the Brazilian National League system.
He first became notable in 2006 when he scored for Ipatinga in a Copa do Brasil quarter-final match against Santos, which Ipatinga would go on to win.[1]
In 2008, whilst on loan to Caxias, he was re-loaned to Grêmio for the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A season.[2] He played in 14 Série A games and scored his first goal in the game against Vitória on 23 November 2008.[3]
In 2012 he was loaned to Ponte Preta, and made 20 appearances in Série A.[4]
He has also been loaned to América-RN, Duque de Caxias and Atlético Goianiense to play in Campeonato Brasileiro Série B and to CRB to play in Campeonato Brasileiro Série C.
From 2015 to 2017 he spent three seasons in Thailand with Suphanburi, Royal Thai Navy and Chonburi in Thai League 1, initially on loan from Boavista-RJ, but then on permanent contracts when released by the Brazilian club.[5]
In 2018 he returned to Brazil, initially representing Mirassol in Campeonato Paulista, but then re-signed for a second spell with Atlético Goianiense.[6]
