He signed for Oeste after the 2012 Série D campaign, and played the last ten game of the title-winning 2012 Campeonato Brasileiro Série C season.[1] He signed a five-year extension with Oeste in May 2013.[2]

On 24 June 2014, Ligger was loaned to Moldovan side Sheriff Tiraspol on a six-month deal with the option of making the move permanent.[3] He returned to Oeste for the 2015 season, and was loaned to Joinville for the 2016 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B season, where he was a regular starter, and one of the main players or the team.[1]

In December 2016 Ligger signed for Fortaleza for the 2017 season.[1] He was a regular starter as the team finished runner-up in 2017 Campeonato Brasileiro Série C and gained promotion, and a regular player the following season as the team were champions of 2018 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B.[4]

Ligger signed for Red Bull Brasil in January 2019, and transitioned to the new Red Bull Bragantino when the merger with Clube Atlético Bragantino took place.[4]
