Career[]

Iury is a product of Madureira, Tigres do Brasil and Avaí FC youth academies. He was brought up to Avai's first team in 2014 and made his professional debut with the club in February 2015 in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A. He scored his first goal for the club in the Campeonato Catarinense against Clube Atlético Metropolitano on 19 February 2015.[1] He stayed with the club for three years, leaving in 2017.[2]

In July 2017 he signed a contract with the Ukrainian Premier League's FC Zorya Luhansk.[3] In February 2018, Iury scored a spectacular bicycle kick in his team's 3-0 win over FC Vorskla Poltava, and celebrated by mimicking a monkey in response to having received "monkey chants".[4]

On 7 June 2018 he moved to UAE Pro-League club Al-Nasr Dubai SC.[5][6] He was loaned out to Al-Fayha 6 months later on 18 January 2019.[7] At the end of the loan, he signed for Portimonense of the Portuguese Primeira Liga on a three-year contract in June 2019.[8]
