Melbourne Heart edit
Maycon moved to Australia, signing with A-League side Melbourne Heart.[2] He will be the second Melbourne Heart player to wear the number 9 shirt, after former striker Gerald Sibon. He scored his first goal for Heart, in the Round 4, 1–1 draw with Sydney FC.[3] On 6 April 2012 it was announced that he would be leaving the club for Pahang FA.[4]
Pahang FA edit
Maycon was recommended by former Pahang FA player, Ante Milicic, who was assistant coach of Melbourne Heart, after Pahang was searching for a striker to partner Mohd Azamuddin Md Akil. After two successful trial matches, Pahang agreed to sign him from Melbourne Heart to help them become runner-up of Malaysian Premier League and secure promotion to Malaysia Super League. However, after Pahang FA secured promotion to Malaysian Super League 2013, "The Elephants" decided against renewing his contract for the upcoming season.[citation needed]
