Career
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Vinícius started his youth career at Fluminense, but moved to Cruzeiro in October 2009. In September 2012 he was promoted to the latter's first team, but failed to make an appearance and was demoted back to the youth squad in January 2013.
On 5 July 2013 Vinícius moved to Serie A side Lazio on a free transfer. After only appearing on the bench for the Biancazzurri, he was loaned to Serie B side Padova until June.
On 15 March 2014 Vinícius made his professional debut, starting in a 3–0 success at Varese.
Then on 28 August, he was again loaned out, this time to Perugia.
During the next campaign, Vinícius spent time on loan at Swiss Super League side FC Zurich, managing a total of 20 league appearances for the Swiss club, and a further four appearances in the 2015–16 Swiss Cup, as Der Stadtclub won 0–1 away to FC Lugano in the final of the Schweizer Cup.
On 30 January 2017, AEK have agreed terms with Lazio left-back as they start negotiations with Lazio hoping to clinch a deal before the end of the January transfer window. Vinicius's contract runs out at the end of the season and AEK have already agreed terms with the Brazilian left-back. A day later he signed a 2,5 years contract with AEK for an undisclosed fee.
