Club career
Born in Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul and named after Henrik Larsson, Larson began his career at the age of eight in a local school, later moving to Internacional aged 11.[1][2] Released in 2020, he subsequently joined hometown side Brasil de Pelotas before joining Goiás in 2022.[3]
On 30 January 2025, Larson was loaned to Palmeiras for one year, being initially a member of the under-20 team.[4] In October, he started to train with the first team,[5] and made his professional – and Série A – debut with the club on 15 November, coming on as a late substitute for Maurício in a 1–0 away loss to Santos, as several key players were away on international duty.[6][7]
On 27 January 2026, Palmeiras exercised the buyout clause on Larson's contract, with the player signing a contract until 2030.[8]
