Career

Edenílson began his sports career in Guarani-RS, the city of Venancio Aires in 2008.

With the maroon shirt, played 82 matches between Edenílson Championship, Brazil Cup, and Copa Gauchão FGF. His professional debut came in 2009 Gaúcho, when he entered the second stage of the match against Veranópolis, on January 22. In the second semester of that year, winning by 3–1 in the classic Ca-Ju valid for FGF Cup, scored his first goal Edenílson.

Of these 82 games, mostly as a starter, Edenilson won 36 and drawn 22.

On 31 August 2016, Edenílson returned to Genoa on a season-long loan deal.[1] After his loan to Genoa was cut short at the end of March, he signed with Internacional on loan until the end of the season.[2]

On 11 July 2018, Internacional exercised the option in the loan contract and made the transfer permanent, signing a three-year contract with him.[3]
