Club career

Born in São Paulo, Victor Luis joined Palmeiras' youth categories in 2003, aged ten, after starting it out at Portuguesa.[2] He progressed through the former's youth setup, always as a first-choice.

In July 2012 Victor Luis moved abroad for the first time in his career, after agreeing to a one-year loan deal at Porto B.[3] On 12 August he made his professional debut, starting in a 2–2 away draw against Tondela for the Segunda Liga championship;[4] he scored his first goal late in the month, netting a last-minute equalizer in a 1–1 draw at Portimonense through a free kick.[5]

In June 2013 Victor Luis returned to Verdão, after appearing in 18 matches for Porto B. He was promoted to the main squad by manager Gilson Kleina, but was never used during the campaign, which ended in promotion.

Victor Luis made his Palmeiras debut on 9 March 2014, replacing Bruno César in the 64th minute of a 3–1 away win against Paulista.[6] He made his Série A debut on 18 May, again from the bench in a 1–0 success at Vitória.[7]

Victor Luis signed a new deal with the club on 30 July, running until 2017.[8] He scored his first goal for Palmeiras on 17 September, netting the last of a 2–2 home draw against Flamengo.[9]

The player has Lithuanian ancestry, so Brazilian media site spread rumors that he could choose to play for Lithuanian national football team, then coached by Edgaras Jankauskas. The media claimed that the coach had already contacted the player about this option. [10] [11]

gollark: Besides, I can hardly call a system exposed to untrusted user input "good" if it breaks badly if used in unintended ways.
gollark: The court system isn't flawless and perfect. It's some people's guess about what might be good several hundred years ago subject to some cultural evolution since.
