Career

Born in Galileia, Minas Gerais, Barcelos moved to Portugal at early age, and was a youth product of Vasco da Gama Vidigueira. After making his senior debut in the 2015–16 season, he moved to Sporting de Viana do Alentejo in the Campeonato de Portugal.

In 2017, Barcelos signed for Cova da Piedade, but only featured for their B-team during his two-year spell at the club. On 7 August 2019, he joined Louletano in the third tier.

On 22 January 2021, Barcelos was announced at Liga Portugal 2 side Mafra on an 18-month contract. He made his professional debut on 2 February, starting in a 1–1 home draw against former side Cova da Piedade.

Barcelos immediately became a regular starter, and scored his first professional goal on 22 August 2021, netting the opener in a 3–1 away win over Académico de Viseu. On 29 January 2024, he left the club to return to his home country, after agreeing to a transfer to Série B side América Mineiro.

On 8 July 2025, Barcelos returned to Portugal and signed a two-season contract with Académico de Viseu.
