Club career edit

Before signing with the Japanese club Avispa Fukuoka on a loan, Ramazotti had played in Brazil with several clubs, as well as appearing for a team in Portugal. He made his debut for Avispa Fukuoka in the 6–0 thumping Avispa received at the hands of Kashima Antlers on the 28 August 2011.

After 4 substitute appearances, including a goal scored against Shimizu S-Pulse, he left Avispa having failed to avoid relegation. Soon after leaving Japan, he arrived in Switzerland where he signed a contract with FC Zurich until the end of the season, with an extension clause.[2]

DPMM FC edit

Ramazotti signed with Bruneian club DPMM FC in 2015[3] and became the top-scorer of the Singapore S.League with 21 goals in a title-winning season.[4] He was also nominated for the Best Goal and Best Player awards.[5]

He won the S.League Golden Boot once again the following year, but his team finished in third place this time.[6] He left DPMM after the conclusion of his third season with the Bruneian side, scoring 14 league goals.[7]

Hougang United edit

In 2019, he signed for Hougang United for only 23 days and ditched by the "abruptly vacated the club’s tenanted apartment" and “left Singapore” without settling the compensation to the club. On 29 January, he has been unveiled on Tuesday as a new player of FC Juarez, a Mexican club that plays in the second tier of the Mexican football pyramid - Liga MX.[8][9]
