[edit]Born in Resende, Rio de Janeiro, Riccieli began his career with hometown side Resende. He made his senior debut on 28 October 2015, starting in a 0–0 away draw against Gonçalense, for the year's Copa Rio;[1] it was his only appearance for the side, as they won the tournament.[2]
Riccieli moved to Mirassol in 2016, being initially a member of the under-20 squad. He first appeared with the senior side on 2 August of that year, replacing Hélio Batista in the first half of a 1–0 Copa Paulista home win over Marília.[3]
Riccieli was definitely promoted to the first team of Leão in January 2017,[4] but only featured in the Copa Paulista in that year. He only started to feature more regularly in the 2018 campaign, scoring his first senior goal on 13 May of that year by netting the opener in a 2–0 Série D home win over Inter de Lages.[5]
Riccieli was a regular starter of Mirassol in the 2019 Campeonato Paulista, and impressed during the competition.[6]
Famalicão
[edit]On 3 July 2019, Riccieli moved abroad and joined Portuguese Primeira Liga side Famalicão.[7] He made his debut for the club on 10 August, replacing Rúben Lameiras late into a 2–0 away win over Santa Clara.
Riccieli scored his first goal abroad on 16 February 2020, netting a last-minute equalizer in a 1–1 home draw against Desportivo Aves.[8] On 19 November, already established as a starter, he renewed his contract until 2025.[9]
Riccieli subsequently became a team captain, and reached 100 matches for Famalicão in December 2022.[10] On 28 December, he further extended his link until 2027.[11]
In January 2024, after having an offer from CSKA Moscow refused by Famalicão,[12] Riccieli lost his starting spot for nearly a month before regaining his status in March.[13] He reached 150 matches for the club in May.[14]
