Biography
Born in Araras, São Paulo state, Wilson started his career at Corinthians. He spent two half season at Paulista FC in July 2005, from 2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B to 2006 Campeonato Paulista. In January 2008 he was signed by Italian Serie A team Genoa in 3½ year contract for €1.1 million. Before that deal Corinthians only owned 50% economic rights and the other half was owned by Moacir da Cunha Viana. Corinthians later announced that the club only received R$ 0.689 million from Brod Island S.A. in its 2008 accounts. He was loaned back to Sport Recife at the start of 2008–09 Serie A. In July 2009 Sport signed him outright for free.
Wilson left for Chinese Super League club Shaanxi Chanba in February 2011. He left for Vegalta Sendai shortly after due to his lack of goals for the club.
