Club career edit
Having started his career with Cruzeiro, Cristian joined Thai side Phuket in 2013, following an agreement between the two clubs.[2] After an impressive 18 goals in 40 games,[3] he transferred to Portuguese side Marítimo in early 2015.[4] He failed to impress during his time with the Primeira Liga side, and left the same year to return to Brazil. He played for Bragantino for one game, before being offered a contract with Turkish side Boluspor.[5]
He did not accept the contract offer with the TFF First League side, and instead joined another Brazilian team, Sorocaba, ahead of the 2016 Paulista A2.[6]
After a short spell with Lithuanian side Stumbras, Cristian joined Japanese side FC Gifu in early 2017.[3]
