Flamengo

Madureira

Hebei China Fortune (loan)
[edit]On 15 July 2019, Fernandinho joined Hebei China Fortune on loan until the end of the 2019 Chinese Super League season. He returned to Evergrande before the 2020 season but overall failed to settle in the team and make an impact.[citation needed]
