Club career
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Amorim began his career with Aquidauanense in 2011, scoring 19 goals and being the year's Campeonato Sul-Mato-Grossense top goalscorer.[1] In September of that year, after a short spell at Marília, he signed for Brasiliense.[2]
On 4 July 2012, Amorim signed for Tupi in the Série C.[3] He moved to Tombense in the following year, and subsequently served loan stints at Madureira, Duque de Caxias,[4] Paysandu[5] and Cuiabá.[6]
On 22 August 2018, still owned by Tombense, Amorim was loaned to Série B side Avaí until the end of the year.[7] A backup option during his first year as his club achieved promotion to the Série A, he became a first-choice in the early stages of the 2019 season, reaching 13 goals in 19 matches during the first four months of the year.[8]
Amorim made his first division debut on 5 May 2019, aged 29, starting in a 1–0 away loss against Bahia. He scored his first goal in the category on 19 May, netting a last-minute equalizer in a 1–1 draw at Vasco da Gama,[9] but was subsequently rarely used and suffered an injury in September, ruling him out for the remainder of the season.[10]
