Early career

[edit]

Born in Alvorada, Rio Grande do Sul, Tetê joined the youth academy of Grêmio in 2008.[1] In 2016, he scored 33 goals for the reserves.[2] On 20 April 2018, his contract was extended until 2021.[3]

Shakhtar Donetsk

[edit]

On 20 February 2019, Tetê moved abroad and joined Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk.[4] On 13 April, he made his first team debut in a 3–0 league victory against Zorya Luhansk.[5] On 6 November, he scored his first Champions League goal in a 3–3 away draw against Dinamo Zagreb in the 2019–20 season.[6]

On 21 October 2020, Tetê scored the opening goal and provided one assist in Shakhtar's memorable 3–2 victory away to Real Madrid in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League.[7]

Loans

[edit]

On 7 March 2022, FIFA announced that, due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, all the contracts of foreign players in Ukraine are suspended until 30 June 2022 and they are allowed to sign with clubs outside Ukraine until that day.[8] On 31 March 2022, Tetê used the new rule to join Lyon in France until the end of June 2022.[9] The arrangement was repeated for the 2022–23 season as FIFA has extended the system for another year.[10]

On 29 January 2023, Tetê signed for Premier League side Leicester City on loan until June 2023.[11] On 4 February 2023, he scored on his debut for Leicester City in a 4–2 win against Aston Villa in the Premier League.[12]

In July 2023, Tetê announced he would not be returning to Shakhtar Donetsk, citing the ongoing war in Ukraine as a contributing factor. He said he had received indications of interest from a number of clubs, including Celtic.[13]

Galatasaray

[edit]

On August 10, 2023, Tetê signed for Galatasaray on a four-year contract with an option for an extra year.[14][15][16]

On 23 August 2023, he made his debut for the first team, coming on in the 82nd minute to replace Yunus Akgün in a 3–2 away win against Molde in the Champions League play-off round game.[17] He scored his first goal for the club in a 2–2 draw against Copenhagen in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League on 20 September.[18]

On July 25, 2024, it was announced that Galatasaray Tete was transferred to the Greek side Panathinaikos for €4.75.[19]

Panathinaikos

[edit]

On 25 July 2024, Tetê signed a 4-year deal with the Greek side Panathinaikos.[20] The club paid a reported fee of around €6,500,000 to Galatasaray, a record fee for over two decades. Tetê will receive approximately €8,500,000 in total wages over the course of the contract, including €2,800,000 per year including bonuses.

International career

[edit]

Tetê has represented the under-20 team at the 2019 South American U-20 Championship. In March 2018, he was called up to train with the senior Brazil team, but he did not make a senior debut.[4][21]
