Born in Diadema, São Paulo, John joined Santos' youth setup in February 2011 at the age of 15, after starting out at São Paulo FC.[1] In 2015, with the departure of Aranha, he was called up to train with the first team in some occasions.[2]

On 20 January 2016, John renewed his contract with Peixe until 2021, being definitely promoted to the main squad as a third choice behind Vanderlei and Vladimir.[3] He made his unnofficial first team debut on 8 October, playing 25 minutes in a 1–1 friendly draw against Benfica.[4]

On 11 December 2018, John was loaned to Portuguesa Santista for the 2019 season.[5] He was an undisputed starter during the 2019 Campeonato Paulista Série A2 before returning to his parent club.

On 13 December 2019, John further extended his contract with Santos until December 2023.[6] Initially a fourth-choice behind Everson, Vladimir and João Paulo at the start of the 2020 campaign, he became a second-choice after Everson left and Vladimir was sidelined due to an injury.[7]

John made his official – and Série A – debut for Santos on 14 November 2020, starting and keeping a clean sheet in a 2–0 home win against Internacional.[8] He made his Copa Libertadores debut ten days later, playing the full 90 minutes and making several key stops in a 2–1 away success over LDU Quito.[9]
