Club career

[edit]

Morato was born in Francisco Morato, São Paulo, Morato finished his formation with Olé Brasil. In 2011 he moved abroad, joining K League Classic side Gyeongnam.

Morato made his professional debut on 23 July 2011, coming on as a late substitute for Yoon Bit-garam in a 2–2 away draw against Incheon United. After six matches, only two as a starter, he was released.

Morato subsequently returned to his homeland, and represented Ferroviária, Mogi Mirim and Boa Esporte in quick succession.[1] On 8 December 2015 he signed for Audax,[2] but moved to FC Cascavel the following 18 February.[3]

After scoring doubles against Maringá and J. Malucelli, Morato was presented at Ituano on 4 May 2016.[4] He was a regular starter for the club during the Série D and the Campeonato Paulista campaigns, notably scoring a brace in a 5–0 home routing of Metropolitano on 9 July.

On 11 April 2017, Morato signed an eight-month contract with São Paulo, club he already represented as a youth.[5] He made his debut for the club eight days later, starting and assisting Lucas Pratto in a 2–1 Copa do Brasil away win against Cruzeiro.[6]

On 7 August 2018, Morato was loaned to fellow top-tier side Sport as a part of Everton Felipe's deal to São Paulo.[7] On 15 January 2019, Ituano announced that Morato had returned to the club.[8]

In April 2019, after performing well in the state league for Ituano, Morato was transferred to newly merged Red Bull Bragantino,[9] where he won the 2019 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B.

On 13 August 2022, Morato joined Saudi Arabian club Al-Khaleej on a two-year deal.[10]
