Club career

[edit]

Næstved

[edit]

Felipe Garcia was born in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, and represented hometown club São José as a youth before moving abroad at early age, joining Danish 1st Division side Næstved Boldklub. After spending the first six months on trial at the under-19s, he signed a three-year contract[1] and made his debut for the club on 4 April 2009, coming on as a second half substitute for Karsten Johansen in a 1–1 home draw against Lyngby BK. Five days later, again from the bench, he scored the equalizer in an away draw against Boldklubben Frem for the same scoreline.

On 25 October 2009 Felipe Garcia scored a brace in a 4–1 home routing of Thisted FC. He repeated the feat on 13 November 2011, in a 2–3 home loss against Esbjerg fB; it was also his last game for the club before leaving in that season's winter transfer window.

Back to Brazil

Felipe García decided to leave Næstved in July 2012, and signed for Aimoré shortly after.[2] The following year he moved to Santo Ângelo, and after six months at the club, joined Pelotas.[3] With the latter, he mainly contributed to their Recopa Gaúcha winning campaign in 2014, scoring twice in a 3–2 success.[4]
