In September 2007, he suffered a knee injury which threatened to end his career. He was ruled him for the rest of the 2007–08 season, and most of the 2008–09 season. After almost a year and a half, he was finally able to play again, making a late appearance in Hertha's UEFA Cup match against Olympiacos. However, Lúcio was unable to reestablish himself in the team and on 18 August 2009, Hertha loaned him to Gremio. In July 2010 he moved to Grêmio on a free transfer from Hertha BSC.
