Football career
Born in Tapejara, Rio Grande do Sul, Lucas started his professional career in 2002, as he signed a five-year contract with Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense. After a short spell with Clube Atlético Mineiro, he moved back to Grêmio.
In July 2006, following a trial period, Lucas agreed on a one-year deal with Spain's Celta de Vigo. However, in only his second La Liga match, a 2–1 away win against Gimnàstic de Tarragona, he was severely injured with a broken leg, going on to miss the rest of the season as the Galicians dropped down a level.
In July 2009 Lucas returned to his country, penning a one-year contract with Santos FC. He moved abroad again in the following seasons, joining S.C. Braga in Portugal; in late January 2011, however, in the following transfer window, he left the club without having appeared officially, and returned to his country with Avaí Futebol Clube.
On 21 June 2011, Lucas was released by the club which sat at the bottom of the league table, eventually being relegated from the Série A.
