Club career

Santos

Born in Coqueiral, Minas Gerais,[1] Diogo Vitor joined Santos' youth setup in 2010, aged 12;[2] he started his career as a left back, but was later converted to a forward.[3] After progressing through the club's youth setup, he was promoted to the first team by manager Marcelo Fernandes in 2015, but was later demoted back to the under-20s after the arrival of Dorival Júnior.

In January 2016, Diogo Vitor failed to appear in the club's presentation, alleging a toothache.[4] After finally returning to Peixe, he was assigned to the B-side.[5]

On 5 June 2016 Diogo Vitor made his professional debut, coming on as a second-half substitute for Joel in a 3–0 home win against Botafogo for the Série A championship.[6] After more indiscipline problems, he was demoted back to the B-side.

On 15 February 2018, Diogo Vitor renewed his contract until 2021, being definitely promoted to the main squad.[7] On 4 March he scored his first professional goal, netting the equalizer in a 1–1 home draw against Corinthians.[8]

Diogo Vitor made his Copa Libertadores debut on 5 April 2018, replacing Rodrygo in a 1–0 away win against Estudiantes.[9] In March 2020, his contract was rescinded as a just cause, after he failed to appear at the club for the 2020 campaign.[10]

Doping case

On 26 April 2018, Diogo Vitor was caught in a doping exam following a Campeonato Paulista match against Botafogo-SP in March; the prohibited substance was suspected to be cocaine.[11] He returned to training in November 2019, after his 18-month suspension ended.[12]
