Born in a Brazilian favela in São Luis in Maranhão, in 1985 he was signed by Anderlecht in Belgium, where he started his career and played until 1992. He then moved to Italy, where he played for Cagliari, Fiorentina, Bologna, Como, Catania, Foggia, Venezia and Lucchese. In 2006, he accepted to play Nuorese of Serie C2/A, also in order to get closer to his family (his wife in Sardinia). In 2008, following the disbandment of his club, he agreed for a move to Serie D team Derthona.
In July 2009 Oliveira moved back to Sardinia, joining Eccellenza club Muravera, a Eccellenza club based at his wife's hometown; he also served as player/manager for the final part of the 2009–10 season, stating his interest in a coaching career in the next future.[1][2] He pass the category 2 coaching exam in June 2011 in Italy.[3]
A naturalized Belgian citizen, he has earned 31 caps for Belgium and played for his adopted country in the 1998 FIFA World Cup.
