Club career[]
A youth product of Cruzeiro, Wallace caused great stir when football agent Jorge Mendes's Gestifute paid €9.5 million to sign him from Cruzeiro in early July 2014.[1] However, as his registration rights as a footballer must owned by a football club, Wallace was "signed" by S.C. Braga which owned 10% economic rights (for the future transfer fee),[2] with a release clause at €40 million.[3]
On 21 August 2014, without ever playing for Braga, he was loaned to AS Monaco, in a loan deal set by Jorge Mendes.[4]
On 29 July 2016, Serie A club Lazio announced that they had definitively purchased Wallace from Braga for €8 million.[5][6] He scored his first goal for the club on 20 November 2016 in a 3–1 home win over Genoa.[7]
On 30 September 2020, Wallace joined Turkish Süper Lig club Yeni Malatyaspor.[8]
International career[]
