Club career

Early career

Born in Santo André but raised in São Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo, Lino played futsal for a local side before joining São Bernardo FC's youth setup in 2016.[2] He made his first team debut with the club on 21 May 2017, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 1–0 Série D away win over Novo Hamburgo.[3]

On 28 June 2017, Lino agreed to a loan deal with Flamengo until October 2018, and returned to the youth setup.[4] His loan was cut short in July 2018,[5] and he was assigned to the first team of São Bernardo for the year's Copa Paulista. He scored his first senior goal on 25 August, netting his team's third in a 3–1 home win over Santos B.[6]

Gil Vicente

On 30 June 2019, Lino moved abroad and signed for Gil Vicente in the Portuguese Primeira Liga.[7] He made his professional debut with the club in a 3-2 Taça da Liga win over Desportivo Aves on 3 August.[8]

Lino scored his first professional goal on 2 February 2020, but in a 5–1 away loss against Moreirense. Despite scoring only twice and having only five league starts during the season, he still renewed his contract until 2024 on 29 July 2020,[9] and subsequently started to feature more regularly in his second year, netting eleven goals overall.

Lino scored 12 goals in the 2021–22 Primeira Liga (which also included a brace in a 3–0 home win over Tondela on 8 May 2022), helping Gil Vicente to a fifth position overall and subsequent a historical qualification to the 2022–23 UEFA Europa Conference League.[10]

Atlético Madrid

On 8 July 2022, Lino joined Atlético Madrid on a five-year deal.[11]

Valencia (loan)

On 28 July 2022, Lino joined Valencia on a season-long loan.[12]
