Club career

Corinthians

Born in São Paulo, Renato joined Corinthians' youth setup in 2001, aged 11.[1] In February 2008, after impressing in the previous years' Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior, he was promoted to the main squad.[2]

Renato made his first team – and Série A – debut on 10 May 2009, starting in a 0–1 home loss against Internacional.[3] He scored his first goal as a professional late in the month, but in a 1–3 away loss against Santos.[4]

Loans to Bahia and Figueirense

On 16 August 2010 Renato was loaned to Bahia until the end of the year.[5] After failing to adapt, he returned to his parent club only months later and moved to Figueirense in a one-year loan deal on 29 December.[6]

Portuguesa

On 2 June 2011, after being rarely used, Renato moved to Série B side Portuguesa also in a temporary deal.[7] He was signed permanently by Lusa in December 2011, after achieving promotion to the top level.[8]

Atlético Paranaense

In July 2012, Renato joined Atlético Paranaense, back to the second tier.[9] He was only a backup option for his new side, and struggled to even make the bench.

In February 2014, Renato refused to play with the under-23s in the year's Campeonato Paranaense, alleging he should be included in the first team squad; due to that, he was even more ostracized.[10]

Loan to Náutico

In July 2014, after making only four appearances, Renato joined Náutico in the second tier, on loan until the end of the year.[11]

Ponte Preta

After being regularly used, Renato joined Ponte Preta in December 2014, after his contract with Furacão expired.[12] On 20 October 2015, after being a starter in the year's Brasileirão, he extended his contract for a further two years.[13]

Fluminense

On 13 January 2016, Renato signed a three-year contract with Fluminense also in the top tier.[14] In his first year, he was mainly used as a backup option to Gum and Henrique.

Al-Wehda

On 4 August 2018, Renato moved abroad for the first time in his career, and joined a host of compatriots at Al-Wehda.[15] He immediately became a starter at his new side.

Al-Batin

On 5 October 2020, Renato signed for fellow Saudi Professional League side Al-Batin on a two-year deal.[16]

Juventude

On 28 July 2022, Renato joined Juventude on a free transfer.[17]
