Club career
[edit]Santos
[edit]Beginnings
[edit]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 unofficial first team debut on 8 October, playing 25 minutes in a 1–1 friendly draw against Benfica.[4]
Loan to Portuguesa Santista
[edit]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]
On 8 January 2021, John and teammate Wagner Leonardo tested positive for COVID-19.[10] Upon returning, he shared the starting spot with João Paulo before suffering a knee injury in August.[11]
After being fully recovered, John spent the 2022 campaign as a backup to undisputed starter João Paulo,[12] playing in just two matches during the year.
Loan to Internacional
[edit]On 18 January 2023, Santos announced the loan of John to fellow top tier club Internacional until the end of the year; he also renewed his contract with his parent club until the end of 2025.[13]
Loan to Valladolid
[edit]On 20 August 2023, John was officially announced by Real Valladolid in the Spanish Segunda División, on loan for one year with a buyout clause.[14] An initial backup to Jordi Masip, he was a starter between the months of September and October before returning to the bench.
Botafogo
[edit]On 4 January 2024, Santos announced the transfer of John to Botafogo,[15] with the player signing a four-year deal for a rumoured fee of € 1.5 million for 85% of his federative rights.[16]
At the presentation press conference, the goalkeeper rejected comparisons with Lucas Perri, Botafogo's goalkeeper in 2023.[17]
In February, John suffered a muscle injury in the match against Nova Iguaçu, in the Campeonato Carioca, and was replaced by Gatito Fernández.[18] The goalkeeper had already missed the start of Glorioso's campaign in the Campeonato Carioca due to a muscle injury. John has a recent history of this type of injury in his career.[19]
Recovered from the muscle problem that took him out of time for around two months,[20] John was reported in Botafogo's debut in the Libertadores group stage, in the match against Junior Barranquilla, April 3, 2024, at the Nilton Santos Stadium.[21]
