Born in São Luís, Maranhão, Willian Maranhão was a Boavista youth graduate. He made his first team debut on 21 January 2014, coming on as a second-half substitute for Thiaguinho in a 1–0 Campeonato Carioca home win over Madureira.

Willian Maranhão subsequently became a regular starter for the side, and scored his first senior goal on 13 September 2017, netting his team's third in a 3–1 home success against Tigres do Brasil, for the year's Copa Rio.[2]

In June 2018, Willian Maranhão was loaned to Série C side Santa Cruz until the end of the tournament.[3] He was a regular starter during his period at the club before terminating his loan deal on 30 August.[4]

Vasco da Gama[]

On 5 September 2018, Willian Maranhão was presented at Série A side Vasco da Gama,[5] on loan until the end of the year. He made his top tier debut five days later, starting in a 0–1 away loss against Vitória.[6]
