A product of Ponte Preta's youth team, Tinga became a first team regular player in early 2009 at 18 years old. He made good appearances for Ponte Preta in the Série B and attracted the interest of some big Brazilian clubs.
Tinga transferred to Palmeiras after the end of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, and since then became a first choice substitute. His first match for Palmeiras came against Santos, where Tinga scored in the second half to give Palmeiras a 2-1 win in the Série A.
