Club career edit

Born in Jangada, Mato Grosso,[1] Raul was a Cuiabá youth graduate. He made his first team debut on 15 August 2019, coming on as a late substitute for Hugo Cabral in a 0–1 home loss against Iporá, for the year's Copa Verde, and also missed his penalty in the 6–5 shoot-out win.[2]

On 23 September 2020, after being rarely used, Raul was loaned to Fortaleza and returned to the youth setup.[3] Upon returning, he started to feature more regularly in the 2021 Campeonato Mato-Grossense, being a regular starter before suffering a minor injury in March 2021.[4]

On 1 May 2021, Raul renewed his contract with the Dourado until the end of 2023.[1]
