Club career[]

Early career[]

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Michel started his career with São Cristóvão, being promoted to the first team at the age of just 16.[1] He subsequently represented Porto Alegre, Madureira, Guarani de Palhoça, Imbituba,[2] Novorizontino[3] and Camboriú[4] before returning to Novorizontino in 2016.[5]

Atlético Goianiense[]

After impressing with Tigre, Michel signed a loan contract with Série B side Atlético Goianiense on 26 April 2016.[6] He immediately became an undisputed starter for the side, contributing with four goals in 35 appearances and achieving top level promotion as champions.

Grêmio[]

On 27 December 2016, Michel was loaned to Série A club Grêmio, for one year.[7] He made his debut in the category on 14 May, starting in a 2–0 home win against Botafogo.[8]

Michel scored his first goals in the top tier on 8 June 2017, netting a brace in a 6–3 away defeat of Chapecoense.[9] He ended the campaign with five goals, being crowned the year's Bola de Prata.[10] In December, Grêmio exercised the buyout clause on his contract, and he signed a permanent two-year contract.[11]

Michel subsequently struggled with injuries in the following years, but still renewed his contract until 2022 on 30 April 2019.[12]
