Club Career

Born in Janauba, Minas Gerais, Walterson joined Sao Bernardo FC's youth setup in 2012 at the age of 17. The following year he was promoted to the first team, and made his senior debut on 3 August of that year by coming on as a half-time substitute in a 1–0 Copa Paulista home win against Juventus.

After being rarely used in the 2014 campaign, Walterson was loaned to Guarani de Divinopolis until the end of 2015 Campeonato Mineiro. He made seven appearances for the side, all from the bench, before returning to his parent club.

Walterson became a first team regular in 2016, contributing with 13 appearances and three goals. He scored his first goals on 26 March, netting a brace in a 4–1 away routing of Rio Claro.

On 4 May 2016, Walterson was loaned to Santos until the end of the year, being initially assigned to the B-team. He made his first team – and Serie A – debut on 8 September, replacing Vitor Bueno in a 1–2 away loss against Internacional.

On 23 December 2016, after failing to reach an agreement, Walterson was released by Peixe and returned to his parent club. The following 7 April, he was loaned to fellow top tier club Atletico Goianiense until the end of the year.

On 14 April 2018, after playing the Campeonato Paulista in Santo Andre, he was announced in Sao Bento for Campeonato Brasileiro Serie B.
