Through a strong season in Belgium, Anjos had the opportunity to reach the elite of the European football, moving to Serbia (at that time still Yugoslavia) to represent Spartak Subotica. He was along Carlos Roberto Jatobá and Osvaldo Monteiro the second Brazilians to play in the Yugoslav First League (the first one had been Domingo Franulovic in 1957 with RNK Split). Anjos played for Spartak Subotica in the 1990–91 season.[3] In the same season he left for HNK Rijeka, in the Yugoslav First League.

In 1998 he played with FC Jazz in Finish Veikkausliiga.[4]
