Club Career

Born in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Hugo started his career with Los Angeles FC in his hometown, aged only five. In 2008 he was invited for a trial at Sao Paulo FC, joining its youth setup in 2009 at the age of 13.

On 14 July 2015 Hugo renewed his contract until the end of 2017, being loaned to RCD Mallorca a day later. However, he only featured for the reserves in Tercera Division.

On 24 August 2016, Hugo moved to another reserve team, Granada CF B in Segunda Division B. After featuring sparingly, he returned to Sao Paulo, representing the B-side until the end of the year.

On 29 December 2017, Hugo joined Atletico Goianiense also in a temporary deal. The following 16 July, after being rarely used, he agreed to a three-year deal with LigaPro side F.C. Famalicao.

Hugo made his professional debut on 11 August 2018, starting in a 0–1 away loss against S.C. Farense. He made just nine more appearances as they were promoted to Primeira Liga as runners-up, and scored in a 4–2 home comeback win over FC Porto B on 27 October.

Hugo returned to the second tier on loan for 2019–20, at Varzim SC. He played 22 total games while in Povoa de Varzim, and scored once to equalise in a 2–1 loss away to eventual double winners FC Porto in the quarter-finals of the Taca de Portugal on 14 January.
