Career

Wellington started his professional career in 2007 with Sport Club Internacional. In the same year, he was lent to São Caetano.

He played for Náutico in 2008 also on loan, before Sport Club Internacional sold Wellington to TSG 1899 Hoffenheim on 7 August 2008. He played only 18 games and was loaned out to FC Twente on 31 August 2009.

On 6 July 2010, he was loaned out to Fortuna Düsseldorf in the 2. Bundesliga. He made his debut in the DFB-Pokal match against TuS Koblenz on 15 August 2010 and scored his first goal – a wide distance shot from 35 meters – as a substitute during a 1–2 defeat against Hertha BSC Berlin on 30 August.[1]

In the winter break, he returned to Brazil, transferring to Figueirense on loan.[2]

On 2 August 2012, his contract until June 2013 at Hoffenheim was terminated in mutual consent.[3] After playing for EC Pelotas in the first half of 2013, he was acquired by Shonan Bellmare.[4]
