Jonathan made his Série A debut on 27 April 2019, playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–0 loss at São Paulo.[5] However, he spent the year as a backup to Gilson.
On 20 August 2019, Jonathan signed a five-year contract with Segunda División side UD Almería, for a rumoured fee of €1 million.[6] On 21 September of the following year, he moved to fellow league team UD Las Palmas on loan for one year.[7]
