After starting out his career in native Brazil, he went on to compete professionally in Romania, Ukraine, Saudi Arabia and Japan.
Daily newspaper Gazeta Sporturilor named Eric the best foreign player of the Romanian championship in 2010 and 2013. He had scored over 50 goals in the country for Gaz Metan Mediaș and Pandurii Târgu Jiu combined.
Eric started his professional career in Brazil at Metropolitano. He was loaned by Metropolitano to Gaz Metan Mediaș in the 2007-2008 Liga II season, a season in which he scored 10 goals helping the team to gain promotion to Liga I. After that season Gaz Metan bought him from Metropolitano.
In his first Liga I season 2008-2009, he played in 25 games and scored 3 goals. In the 2009-2010 season he played in 30 games and scored 8 goals. In the 2010-2011 season he played in 31 games and scored 15 goals, helping the team finish in the 7th place in Liga I, a place that gained Gaz Metan's first ever qualification in the UEFA Europa League because Politehnica Timişoara that finished 2nd in that season was relegated by the Romanian Football Federation because they did not fulfill the licence conditions to play in European competitions or Liga I. He was awarded the Liga I Foreign Footballer of the Year individual trophy in 2010.
