Club career

edit

Born in Morro da Fumaça, Santa Catarina, Moisés played amateur football until joining Hercílio Luz in 2019.[1] He appeared in his first senior match on 16 January of that year, playing the last five minutes of a 2–2 Campeonato Catarinense away draw against Atlético Tubarão;[2] he scored his first goal ten days later, in a 4–0 home routing of Metropolitano.[3]

After being mainly used as a substitute, Moisés was loaned to Concórdia for the second division of the Catarinense.[4] After achieving promotion to the top tier and being the top goalscorer of the tournament, he signed a permanent contract with the club.[5]

On 23 September 2019, Moisés moved to Brusque on loan for the year's Copa Santa Catarina.[6] He returned to his parent club in December, after lifting the trophy and being again the top goalscorer.[5]

On 5 June 2020, Moisés renewed his contract with Concórdia until 2022.[7] Late in the month, he agreed to a loan deal with Série B side Ponte Preta until April 2021.[8]

Initially a backup option, Moisés started to feature regularly during the 2020 Série B, and scored a hat-trick in a 7–2 away success over Figueirense on 29 January 2021.[9] On 3 May, Ponte signed him permanently on a contract until 2024.[10]
