Club career

Brazil

He was signed by Brazilian club América (SP) until the end of Campeonato Paulista in January 2006.[2]

Roma

He signed a 1+3 year contract with Italian club Roma in July 2006, earning a gross salary of €260,000 as part of the deal.[3]

Due to an injury to first choice goalkeeper Doni and poor performances by backup Artur, Júlio Sérgio made his debut in Serie A on 30 August 2009 against Juventus, a game which Roma lost 1–3 and a defeat that lead to the resignation of Roma coach Luciano Spalletti. Despite this, Júlio Sérgio was preferred by new head coach Claudio Ranieri in his first game in-charge in a 2–1 away win at A.C. Siena on 13 September.

Strong performances ensured Julio Sérgio more regular football and ultimately allowed him to become the new first choice keeper for the Giallorossi. He saved a key penalty from Sergio Floccari during the Rome derby against Lazio, which Roma ultimately won 2–1. Roma was losing 1–0 before the penalty, and Júlio Sérgio's save was defined by head coach Claudio Ranieri as the turning point of the game.[4][5] On 31 May 2010, he signed a new contract with the club, keeping him in the capital until 2014. His gross salary will be increased to €1.3 million per year in the first year and €1.4M in the second and the third, then decreasing to €0.7million in the last year.[6][7]

After Roma appointed new coach Vincenzo Montella, Doni returned to starting eleven. However both players left the club under new management and new owner in 2011–12 Serie A, which the club already signed Gianluca Curci in June.

Lecce

He signed a season long deal loan for Lecce in 2011. He played only 7 games in first part of the season, because of his problem with injuries.
