Club career edit

Born in Arrozal, Rio de Janeiro, Pedro Paulo began his career at Cruzeiro and, on 6 November 2014, was loaned to fellow Série A team Athletico Paranaense.[2] He was first included in a matchday squad on 2 November 2014, remaining an unused substitute in their 1–0 home win over Atlético Mineiro in Série A. Three weeks later he made his professional debut, as an added-time replacement for Marcelo Cirino at the end of a 2–1 win at Bahia. On 7 December, in the last game of the season, he made his only other appearance in a 1–1 draw at Palmeiras, again off the bench. In February 2015, he made three substitute appearances in the season's Campeonato Paranaense.

On 13 July 2015, he was loaned out again, to Portugal's Rio Ave, for the upcoming Primeira Liga campaign.[3]

International career edit

Paulo was part of the Brazil U17 squad which won the 2011 South American U-17 Championship, playing eight games and scoring twice in a 4–3 win over Venezuela in the opener on 13 March.[4]
