Club career
Born in Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Cordeiro graduated with Vasco da Gama's youth setup, but left in the following year after the club's financial troubles. He subsequently resumed his career in the lower levels.
In 2008, after scoring 12 goals for Atlético Sorocaba, Cordeiro joined Vitória. He made his first team – and Série A – debut on 10 May, starting in a 0–2 home loss against Cruzeiro.
Cordeiro scored his first professional goals on 9 July, netting a brace in a 5–2 home routing over Botafogo. He appeared in 33 matches and scored five goals, and moved to Internacional on 9 January 2009.
Cordeiro was subsequently loaned to Botafogo and Portuguesa, and signed permanently with the latter in November 2011. He was an ever-present figure with Lusa, appearing in more than 100 matches for the club.
On 25 April 2013 Cordeiro joined Sport Recife. On 30 May of the following year he was released, and signed for Metropolitano on 4 August.
