Football career

Douglas started his career with América Futebol Clube in Minas Gerais, also serving a brief loan at Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense.[1] In the 2008 summer he was sold to Vitória de Guimarães,[2] spending his first season severely injured, but still scoring four goals in the league, namely in a 3–1 win at C.D. Trofense on 28 September 2008.

Douglas was sparingly used by Guimarães in the following two seasons combined, only finding the net once. On 1 June 2011 the free agent signed a four-year contract with Minho neighbours S.C. Braga,[3] being loaned to fellow top-divisioner S.C. Beira-Mar the following month, in a season-long move.
