Career

Born in Goiânia, Platiny started in Monte Cristo EC, in the Brazilian regional leagues. After three seasons competing in Brazil, on 29 August 2012, Platiny joined Portuguese side Feirense on a one-year deal.

In his debut professional season, he scored 9 goals, being the team fourth highest goalscorer, with one less than the top three. His performances attracted interest from larger clubs, signing with S.C. Braga in late June 2013, spending one season competing in their B-team.

A year later, Platiny joined Aves, on a loan deal from Grêmio Anápolis, scoring eight goals in over 30 caps at Vila das Aves. On 21 July 2015, he returned to Feirense for a second-spell. His performances there, earned him accolades for Segunda Liga Player of the Month in February 2016, and with 17 goals, he finished runner-up in the scoring charts, helping Feirense return to the Primeira Liga.
