Club career
Born in
From 2005 to 2008, Paulista competed in Polish Ekstraklasa with Wisła Kraków, netting five times in 27 appearances in his second year. In July 2008, he signed a two-year contract with APOEL FC in the Cypriot First Division, making his official debut for his new club in the first qualifying round of the UEFA Cup; also in that competition, against Red Star Belgrade, he suffered a serious injury which sidelined him for almost a year.
Paulista returned to full fitness in the 2009–10 season, scoring twice to help APOEL to the second position. He made three appearances in that campaign's UEFA Champions League.
After spending the 2010–11 season with AEK Larnaca, Paulista returned to Poland where he played in the lower leagues, starting with Polonia Bytom, until his retirement at the start of 2014.
