Club career

Ralf led Barueri to its first ever season in the Campeonato Paulista and Brazilian Série A.[2] His consistent and quality play with Barueri led Corithians to make him one of several midfielders signed by the club in the 2010 pre-season.[3] On July 13, 2012, he renewed his contract with Corinthians for another three years, despite transfer offers coming from European clubs.[4]
