Club career Edit
Early years and V. Guimarães Edit
Born in Fortaleza, Ceará, Lionn spent his entire professional career in Portugal, signing with S.C.U. Torreense as an 18-year-old from Ferroviário Atlético Clube (CE). In 2008 he joined Vitória S.C. from the Primeira Liga, making his debut in the competition on 8 December in a 1–0 home win against Leixões S.C. where he played the full 90 minutes.[2]
During his spell at the Estádio D. Afonso Henriques, Lionn was also loaned to fellow league teams S.C. Olhanense[3] and Rio Ave FC.[4]
Cluj and Rio Ave Edit
Ahead of the 2011–12 season, Lionn moved to the Romanian Liga I with CFR Cluj.[5][6] One year later, he was loaned to former club Rio Ave.[7]
Lionn scored his first goal in the Portuguese top division – and second as a professional – on 25 August 2013, helping the hosts defeat Vitória F.C. 2–0.[8] In the 2015–16 campaign, he started in 27 of his 28 league appearances as Rio Ave finished in sixth position, qualifying for the UEFA Europa League for the second time in its history.[9] Subsequently, as his link was about to expire, he renewed his contract.[7]
Later career Edit
On 17 September 2018, Lionn signed a two-year deal with G.D. Chaves.[10] After his team's relegation he continued in the Portuguese top tier, joining newly promoted F.C. Famalicão on a two-year contract.[11]
