Club career

Born in São Borja, Rio Grande do Sul, Gaúcho started his professional career with Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense. In 2000, he moved abroad, joining União Desportiva de Leiria of Portugal, where he remained two seasons.

Éder stayed in the country afterwards, transferring to Boavista F.C. with the aid of an investment fund, which signed a portion of the player's rights, and would received a portion of transfer fees. He played all four matches in the season's UEFA Champions League qualifying rounds, adding 12 games in the 2002–03 UEFA Cup, scoring once; the Porto side reached the semifinals.

In the 2005 summer, Gaúcho signed for Russian club FC Terek Grozny. In February 2007, however, he returned to Brazil and signed a six-month contract with Sertãozinho Futebol Clube, which appeared in the Paulistan League. In July, he returned to Leiria,[1] notably scoring in the 4–1 home win over FK Hajduk Kula, in the second leg of the last qualifying round of the 2007 UEFA Intertoto Cup, with a subsequent UEFA Cup qualification, with the team being eliminated in the first round of the competition.

In July 2008, Éder joined Al-Nassr FC of Saudi Arabia. He also played in the Middle East region for Al Rayyan Sports Club, appearing in the 2009 Emir of Qatar Cup final. In January 2010, he left the club, in exchange for Pascal Feindouno.[2]

International career

Éder played for Brazil U20's at the 1997 FIFA World Youth Championship in Malaysia. As the national team exited in the quarterfinals, he scored in a 10–0 demolition of Belgium in the round of 16.[3]
