Born in Algodão, Ibirataia, Bahia, André joined Fluminense's youth setup in 2013, aged 12.[2] On 21 February 2020, he renewed his contract with the club until 2023.[3]

André made his professional debut on 16 September 2020, coming on as a late substitute for Dodi in a 1–0 home win over Atlético Goianiense, for the year's Copa do Brasil.[4] His first Série A occurred four days later, as he started in a 1–0 away loss against Sport Recife.

André scored his first professional goal on 4 July 2021, netting a last-minute winner in a 1–0 away success over rivals Flamengo.[5] On 4 October, he further extended his contract until the end of 2024.[6] André, 21, completed his hundredth game for the Laranjeiras club, on 1 October 2022, against Atletico-MG, in Mineirão.[7]

On 24 August 2023, he scored the first goal in a 2–0 win over Olimpia in his 150th match with Fluminense during the Copa Libertadores quarter-finals.[8] Later that year, on 4 November, he started in the Copa Libertadores final with Fluminense against Boca Juniors, which ended in a 2–1 victory after extra time, to be his club's first title in that competition.[9]

Wolverhampton Wanderers

On 30 August 2024, just before the transfer window closed, André joined Premier League club Wolverhampton Wanderers.[10]
