Career

edit

Born in Registro, São Paulo, Maurício represented Guarujá, Atlético Sorocaba, Audax and Ponte Preta. He made his first team – and Série A – debut on 8 December 2013, starting in a 0–0 away draw against Internacional, as his club was already relegated.[1]

Maurício returned to his parent club Audax in 2014, and subsequently also represented affiliated clubs Grêmio Osasco and Audax Rio. In 2016, he moved to Série B side Oeste, after a partnership between the club and Audax was established, but featured rarely.

In January 2017, Maurício was close to a move to Portuguesa, but the deal fell through due to financial reasons.[2] On 21 December 2018, he was announced at América de Natal.[3]

On 27 August 2019, after a short spell at URT, Maurício signed for Ferroviária.[4] He moved to Taubaté for the 2020 season, before agreeing to a deal with Marília in October;[5] shortly after, however, he returned to AFE.

In the following two years, Maurício played for Pelotas,[6] Juventus Jaraguá, Juventus-SP and Marcílio Dias.[7] On 17 November 2022, he was announced at Manaus FC.[8]

Maurício started the 2024 campaign at Juazeirense, but left the club on 23 April.[9] On 7 June, he was announced at Brasil de Pelotas.[10]

On 26 August 2024, Maurício was announced at Lusa for the Copa Paulista.[11] On 9 December, he renewed his contract with the club for a further year.[12]
