Born in Teixeira de Freitas, Bahia, Kaio Ganga joined Ponte Preta's youth sides in 2021.[1] In August 2025, after being the top scorer of the under-20 team, he was promoted to the main squad by head coach Marcelo Fernandes.[2]
Kaio Ganga made his senior debut on 30 August 2025, coming on as a second-half substitute for Luiz Felipe in a 1–0 Série C home win over Londrina.[3] He subsequently returned to the under-20s, where he gained notoriety after receiving a yellow card for an "unsportsmanlike conduct" in their opening match of the 2026 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior, when he was making keepie uppies in that play.[4]
