Born in Matão, São Paulo, Cadu joined Santos' youth setup in 2013, aged ten.[1] On 2 October 2018, he signed his first professional contract with the club, until 2021.[2]

In December 2019, Cadu suffered a serious knee injury, being sidelined until the following August.[3] On 25 May 2021, he renewed his contract until September 2023.[4]

Cadu played his first senior match on 14 September 2021, starting with the B-team in a 2–0 away loss against EC São Bernardo, for the year's Copa Paulista. On 19 April 2023, he further extended his link with the club until the end of 2024.[5]

Cadu made his professional debut on 29 June 2023, starting in a 0–0 home draw against Blooming for the year's Copa Sudamericana, as both sides were already eliminated.[6][7] He made his Série A debut three days later, coming on as a second-half substitute for João Lucas in a 3–0 away defeat to Cuiabá.[8]

After being separated from the first team squad for the 2024 season, Cadu terminated his contract with Santos on 28 June of that year.[9]

Kotwica Kołobrzeg

On 24 September 2024, Cadu joined Kotwica Kołobrzeg,[10] debuting on the same day in a 3–2 win over the ŁKS Łódź reserves in the first round of the Polish Cup.[11]
