Career

Cruzeiro

On 22 January 2020, Thiago made his professional debut when he started for Cruzeiro in their Campeonato Mineiro match against Boa Esporte Clube.[2]

Ludogorets Razgrad

After a series of rumours, on 2 March 2022, Thiago finally signed with the Bulgarian champions Ludogorets Razgrad.[3] He joined the Ludogorets II to adapt better with the Bulgarian team and made his debut for the second team on 18 April in a league match against Litex Lovech, scoring his debut goal in the match.[4] A week later he scored two goals for the second team in the league match against Dobrudzha Dobrich.[5]

His good start for the second team granted him a call-up for the first team where he made his debut in a league match against CSKA Sofia with Igor Thiago coming on as a substitute and scoring his debut goal for the first team as well.[6]

Club Brugge

On 12 June 2023, Thiago signed for Belgian Pro League club Club Brugge on a four-year contract.[7] The fee received by Ludogorets was a record for a Bulgarian club.[8]
