Dênis de Oliveira Aguiar Júnior (born 10 August 1998), better known as Dênis Júnior, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Vila Nova.

Career

Revealed in the youth sectors of São Paulo FC, Dênis is the highlight of the 2015 Campeonato Paulista Sub-17 (U-17) title[1] He was promoted to the professional squad in 2017, when he adopted the name "Júnior" since goalkeeper Denis was still on the club at the time. He played in three matches for the 2017 Copa Paulista,[2] and also played in the 2018 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Jr..[3]

He remained as a reserve at São Paulo FC until 2021, when he was loaned to EC Bahia, where he played a few matches.[4] Even so, after being released by São Paulo at the end of 2022, he signed permanently with Bahia. He was passed on to AD Confiança, but he did not play in any matches.[5]

In 2023, he was loaned again, this time to Vila Nova FC, where he became a starter of the team during the 2023 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B.[6]
