On 27 June 2013 Cicinho suffered a severe knee injury, which took him out of action for six months. On 28 January 2015, after failing to appear with the Rojiblancos after his injury, he was loaned to Segunda División's CD Numancia until June. He made 15 appearances for the team from Soria, heading an equaliser in a 2–1 loss at Girona FC on 1 March.

Cicinho made his Série A debut on 10 May 2009, starting in a 1–1 home draw against Botafogo. He appeared regularly in the campaign, which ended in relegation.

Born in Jundiaí, Cicinho made his senior debuts with local Ituano in 2007. He then moved to neighbouring Oeste in January of the following year, but was subsequently loaned to Santo André in May, appearing in 20 matches and scoring twice during his first year, helping the Ramalhão return to Série A after a 25-year absence.
