He made two substitute appearances for Vasco da Gama in the 2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, but spent most of his career in the lower leagues of Brazilian football.

Club career

Born in Barcelona, Spain, Romarinho joined Vasco da Gama's youth setup in 2007. On 5 December 2012, he rescinded with the club,[1] and moved to Brasiliense a day later.[2]

Romarinho made his senior debuts during the 2013 campaign, scoring a goal in the year's Campeonato Brasiliense 3–0 win over Brasília.[3] On 5 January 2015 he left Brasiliense,[4] and immediately returned to his first club Vasco.[5]

Romarinho made his Série A debut on 29 August 2015, coming on as a late substitute for Julio dos Santos in a 0–1 home loss against Figueirense.[6]

At the end of 2015, Romarinho agreed to spend the upcoming year with Zweigen Kanazawa in the J. League Division 2,[7] and he returned to a contract at Macaé for the 2017 Campeonato Carioca.[8] At its conclusion, he joined Tupi for the year's Série C campaign,[9] He scored just once in his spell in Minas Gerais, a consolation in a 3–2 home loss to Bragantino on 9 September.[10]

In December 2017, Romarinho signed for Figueirense.[11] He played only three matches as they won the Campeonato Catarinense, scoring on 24 January to win the home game against Brusque.[12] Despite his low involvement – partially due to competition from Henan – his contract was extended to the end of the year, taking in the Alvinegro team's Série B campaign.[13]

Romarinho returned to Tupi in January 2019.[14] Three months later, after finishing the 2019 Campeonato Mineiro with eight games and one goal, he signed for Maringá for the 2019 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.[15]

On 9 December 2019, Romarinho returned to Santa Catarina, joining Joinville for the upcoming state league season.[16]

Personal life

Romarinho's father, Romário, was also a footballer and a forward. He too was groomed at Vasco.[17]
