Career edit

Born in Combinado, Tocantins, Edson was an Internacional youth graduate. In 2012, he joined Arapongas, but only made his first team debut in the following year.

On 23 August 2013, Edson was presented on loan at Série C side Vila Nova,[1] but did not play for the club. Back to Arapongas for the 2014 season,[2] he was again a first-choice before being loaned out to Nacional-PR on 10 June of that year.[3]

On 3 October 2014, after a short period at Icasa, Edson was announced at Série A side Criciúma.[4] Initially a third-choice, he made his debut in the category on 23 November, starting in a 1–1 away draw against Flamengo.[5]

Edson spent the following years as a backup to Luiz, also serving a loan stint at Mirassol in the 2016 Campeonato Paulista Série A2.[6] Ahead of the 2018 season, he moved to CRB, but spent the campaign as a backup to João Carlos.

Edson became a regular starter in the 2019 season, but suffered a knee injury which left him sidelined for nearly four months.[7] He shared the starting spot with Victor Souza in 2020, but lost space after the arrival of Diogo Silva in 2021, and left for Mirassol on 15 July of that year.[8]

On 20 May 2022, after being a backup to Darley during the year, Edson signed for Pouso Alegre.[9] On 22 November, he was presented at São Bento for the upcoming season.[10]

On 27 April 2023, Edson was announced at Amazonas.[11] On 4 December, after being mainly a first-choice as the club achieved a first-ever promotion to the Série B, he renewed his contract.[12]
