Club career

Born in Novo Hamburgo, Leonço represented lower league clubs in his country. He moved abroad on 20 August 2013, and signed for Portuguese second tier club Santa Clara.[3] On 2 February 2015, he switched to Leixões after being a free agent since the end of the previous season.[4] In the following season, he moved to Farense.[5] However, his contract was soon terminated on 19 January 2016.[6]

On 31 July 2017, Leonço signed with Cypriot First Division club AEL Limassol after a stint with Danish second tier club Vendsyssel.[7]

On 21 January 2018, Leonço signed with Hong Kong Premier League club R&F.

In September 2020, Leonço joined China League One club Beijing Renhe on loan. Despite scoring 8 goals in 17 league appearances, his performance was not enough to prevent Renhe's relegation from the second division.

On 8 March 2021, Leonço joined China Super League club Guangzhou City on a two-year deal.[8]
