Club career

Born in Cláudia, Mato Grosso, Vargas represented Rio Preto, União Barbarense, Santo André and Audax as a youth.[1] Ahead of the 2014 campaign, he was loaned to partner team Audax Rio for the year's Campeonato Carioca.

Vargas made his senior debut on 20 February 2014, coming on as a half-time substitute for Guilherme in a 2–1 home win against Boavista, and scored his first goal six days later by netting the opener in a 5–3 home loss against Bonsucesso. After featuring regularly, he moved to Corinthians in September, returning to the youth setup.[2]

In 2016, after his loan with Timão expired,[3] Vargas moved to Oeste also in a temporary deal, as the club reached a partnership with Audax. He returned to his parent club for the 2017 season, but was loaned to Superleague Greece side Kerkyra in June of that year.[4]

In September 2018, Vargas joined Ponte Preta on loan until the following April.[5] His loan was later extended, but on 6 September of the following year, he agreed to a permanent two-year deal with Fortaleza.[6]

Vargas made his Série A debut on 15 September 2019, replacing Osvaldo in a 1–1 away draw against Bahia. On 30 December, after only two top tier appearances, he was loaned to fellow league team Atlético Goianiense for the 2020 campaign.[7]
