Club career

[edit]

Born in Volta Redonda, Rio de Janeiro, Jordi joined Vasco da Gama's youth setup in 2009, after starting out at Volta Redonda. On 10 September 2013, he signed a professional contract until 2016.[2]

Jordi was promoted to the main squad in 2014, and acted mainly as a backup to new signing Martín Silva. He made his professional debut on 9 September, starting in a 2–0 home win against Luverdense for the Série B championship.[3]

In his Série A debut on 3 June 2015, Jordi was sent off with only 29 minutes; his team would eventually finish with a 0–3 home defeat to Ponte Preta.[4]
