Club career
Early career
Born in Salvador, Bahia,[1] Danilo represented Bahia as a youth before being released by the club. In 2017, at the age of 16, he joined PFC Cajazeiras through a social project, after a short stint at Jacuipense.[2] He made his senior debut for Cajazeiras on 5 May 2018, aged 17, by coming on as a second-half substitute in a 4–0 Campeonato Baiano Segunda Divisão home routing of Conquista.[3]
Palmeiras
In 2018, Danilo joined Palmeiras, initially for the under-17s.[1] He progressed through the youth setup, being later a starter for the under-20s before making his first team – and Série A – debut on 6 September 2020, replacing fellow youth graduate Patrick de Paula in a 2–1 away win against Red Bull Bragantino.[4]
On 10 September 2020, Danilo was bought outright by Verdão, signing a permanent five-year contract with the club.[5] He scored his first professional goal on 2 December, netting his team's fifth in a 5–0 Copa Libertadores home routing of Delfín SC.
