[edit] Club career
[edit] Ajax
Maxwell started his career at Cruzeiro. In June 2001, he signed a 3+2 year contract with Ajax.[2] Maxwell played his best season for Ajax in 2003-04 season, only missed 3 games for the Eredivisie winner due to international duty, and became the Dutch footballer of the year.
He was seriously injured in April 2005[3] and never played again for Ajax.
[edit] Internazionale
His contract with Ajax was shortened to expire on the 2 January 2006,.[4] in order to join Internazionale on a free transfer Due to non-EU player registration quota per year, he was signed by Empoli until the end of season[5] before officially transferred to Inter in a similar deal to that of Júlio César to Chievo; however, he did not play any games.
In July 2006, Inter officially announced the signing of Maxwell on a four-year contract as a domestic transfer.[6]
Maxwell impressed in his first season in Serie A, most notably against Parma at the San Siro when he scored a fine solo effort which was voted Inter's goal of the season by Inter channel viewers.
Initially placed at left back, the 2007-08 season saw him move further up the field with Cristian Chivu replacing him at left back while Maxwell played a left midfield/winger role. This became very effective as Maxwell adapted well to the winger role which made use of his blistering pace. In that season, he won his second consecutive Scudetto with Inter. In the 2008-09, he suffered a serious injury that took him out of competition for six weeks. But the following games in which he returned to action, he always inserted into the starting 11 and showed his impressive old form before the injury. He scored his second goal for Inter on 14 December against Chievo, which they won 4-2 after a beautiful assist from Dejan Stanković.
[edit] Barcelona
On July 15th 2009, it was announced that Barcelona and Internazionale had reached an agreement, with Maxwell joining the Catalan club for €4.5m and €0.5m in variables. it meant that Barcelona is the third club where he plays with Zlatan Ibrahimović, after first playing together in Ajax and then Inter before joining Barcelona.[7] Two days later Maxwell signed his 4+1 year contract and was presented as a new Barça player.[8] Maxwell made his debut for the club in the second leg of the 2009 Supercopa de España playing all 90 minutes.
[edit] International career
Maxwell was capped for 2004 CONMEBOL Men Pre-Olympic Tournament with the Brazil U-23 in January 2004. In October 2004, he received his first call-up to the senior team for the World Cup qualifying matches, but did not make any appearances.[9]
