Club career

Born in Campina Grande, Paraíba, Thaciano was a Porto de Caruaru youth graduate. Promoted to the first team in 2013, he made his senior debut on 20 January of that year by starting in a 0–4 Campeonato Pernambucano home loss against Central.

Thaciano was an undisputed for Porto during the 2014 campaign, as his side achieved a place in Série D. On 13 January 2015, after fully recovering from an injury, he joined Série B side Boa Esporte on loan until the end of the year.[1]

Thaciano made his professional debut on 1 September 2015, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–2 home loss against Paraná.[2] He scored his first goal on 16 October, netting the second in a 2–2 home draw against Sampaio Corrêa.[3] He contributed with 11 appearances, scoring four goals, as his side suffered relegation.

On 9 May 2016, after already being bought outright by Boa, Thaciano was loaned to Santos for one year.[4] The following January, after appearing with the B-team in the Copa Paulista, he was promoted to the first team by manager Dorival Júnior.[5]

On 29 June 2017, Thaciano returned to his parent club after an agreement between Santos and Boa Esporte was not reached; he only represented the main squad once, in a friendly against KAC Kénitra.[6] On 16 July, he scored a brace for Boa in a 2–2 away draw against Londrina.

On 29 November 2017, after scoring a career-best ten goals, Thaciano agreed to a two-year loan deal with Grêmio, with a buyout clause.[7] On 7 May 2019, he was bought outright by the club for a fee of R$ 2 million for 80% of his federative rights, and signed a three-year contract.[8]
