Club career

Early career

Born in Marília, São Paulo, Lucas Lima finished his formation with Inter de Limeira, joining their youth setup in 2009, after being released by Rio Preto and América-SP.[1] He was promoted to the former's main squad in 2010. In August 2011 he had a trial at La Liga side Racing de Santander,[2] but nothing came of it.

Internacional

In July 2012 Lucas Lima joined SC Internacional, initially assigned with the under-23 squad.[3] After being promoted to the first team,[4] he made his debut for Colorado on 15 July, starting in a 0–0 home draw against Santos FC.[5] He appeared in 14 matches during the season, with only four starts, however.

On 5 March 2013 Lucas Lima joined Sport Recife on loan until the end of the season.[6] He soon established himself as a starter, and appeared in 46 matches (36 in the league), scoring nine times.

Lucas Lima scored the decisive penalty for Santos in 2015 Campeonato Paulista final, netting the fourth in a 4–2 shootout win. He was also included in the tournament's best eleven.[12]
