Born in São Luís, Maranhão, Pablo graduated from the youth setup of Ceará and made his senior debut in 2010, in Série A.[3] On 7 January 2012, he joined Grêmio for the upcoming season.[4] After appearing rarely for the side, he left the club on 13 December.[5]

On 9 January 2013, Pablo moved to Série B club Avaí.[6] On 29 November, he scored his first Série B goal in a 1–0 victory over Boa.[7] He played regularly during the 2014 season, as fellow league club Flamengo expressing their desire to secure his services[8]

On 8 January 2015, Pablo returned to the top flight and joined Ponte Preta.[9] On 9 August, he scored his first goal for the club in a 1–0 win against Flamengo.[10]

Bordeaux, and Corinthians loan

[edit]

On 31 August 2015, Pablo moved abroad and joined French Ligue 1 club Bordeaux on a four-year contract.[11] He made his Europa League debut on 17 September against Liverpool; and was nutmegged by Adam Lallana in the 1–1 draw.[12] On 26 September, he scored his first goal for the club in a 3–1 victory against Lyon.[13]

On 1 January 2017, Pablo was loaned out to Brazilian club Corinthians.[14] He played 51 times during the season, with the side winning the Campeonato Paulista and Série A.[15]

Lokomotiv Moscow

On 14 March 2022, Lokomotiv Moscow announced the transfer of Pablo to Flamengo.[17]

Botafogo

[edit]

On February 2, 2024, he was announced as a new reinforcement for Botafogo until the end of 2024.[18] As soon as he arrived at Botafogo, Pablo felt pain in his thigh and has been absent from the team since then.[19] The defender has not even been listed by Alvinegro yet.

On April 17, 2024, two months after being signed by Botafogo, Pablo was finally announced by the club in a press conference at the Nilton Santos Stadium.[20]

On April 21, Pablo finally debuted for Botafogo in the 5-1 defeat of Juventude,[21] at the Nilton Santos Stadium, in the third round of the Brazilian Championship. The defender, however, felt his thigh again and left the game. Pablo only spent 20 minutes on the field.[22]
