After weeks of speculation, where it was thought that he might even go to Deportivo de La Coruña, Cruzeiro produced a bid twice as high as Grêmio's for the player. He did eventually move to Cruzeiro, but Cruzeiro later loaned him out to Beitar Jerusalem in August 2007 for one year. Rômulo joined the French ligue 2 club RC Strasbourg on a six-month loan from Cruzeiro, on 8 September 2009 Coritiba FC signed the forward on loan from Cruzeiro until December 2009. When the loan ended, he was transferred to Atlas of Mexico. After spending six months in Mexico, he returned to his home country Brazil and joined Guarani. Then, he moved to Grêmio Prudente from Guarani in January 2011. On 29 June 2011, Rômulo joined Belgian side Westerlo from Brasiliense, signing a one-year contract. But after just over two months at Belgium side, he moved to Israeli club Ironi Nir Ramat HaSharon. In July 2013, he joined Maltese club Valletta on a one-year deal.
