## Club career

### Internacional

Taison started his career with Brazilian club [Internacional](/source/Internacional) and quickly rose to prominence within their youth set up, becoming one of the brightest prospects at the club. After making his first team debut in 2008, he went on to become an instrumental part of the team, subsequently winning the [Copa Sudamericana](/source/Copa_Sudamericana_2008). His great form continued into the next season, where he won the [Campeonato Gaúcho](/source/Campeonato_Ga%C3%BAcho_2009), the [Suruga Bank Championship](/source/Suruga_Bank_Championship_2009), and finished as runner-up in the [Copa do Brasil](/source/Copa_do_Brasil_2009). Taison's first stint at the club reached its conclusion in great fashion with the [2010 Copa Libertadores](/source/2010_Copa_Libertadores) title.[4]

### Metalist Kharkiv

After being linked with a host of clubs across Europe, including [Wolfsburg](/source/VfL_Wolfsburg) and [Napoli](/source/SSC_Napoli) Taison eventually signed for Ukrainian club [Metalist Kharkiv](/source/Metalist_Kharkiv) for an approximate fee of 6 million euros. He started brightly in [Ukraine](/source/Ukraine) and even pipped [Willian](/source/Willian_Borges_da_Silva) to the "best new signing" accolade. The Brazilian scored an incredible [Marco van Basten](/source/Marco_van_Basten) style volley against [Rosenborg BK](/source/Rosenborg_BK) on 8 November 2012 in the [Europa League](/source/Europa_League). In the same game he also provided the assist for the second in a 3–1 win.[5]

### Shakhtar Donetsk

Taison with Shakhtar in 2016

Taison signed with [Shakhtar Donetsk](/source/Shakhtar_Donetsk) on 1 January 2013 for a fee of around £12.4 million.[2] He made his debut for Shakhtar in the [Champions League](/source/2012%E2%80%9313_UEFA_Champions_League) against [Borussia Dortmund](/source/Borussia_Dortmund) in a 2–2 draw on 13 February 2013. He scored his first goal for Shakhtar and was named Man of the Match[6] in a 3–3 draw with [Metalurh Zaporizhya](/source/FC_Metalurh_Zaporizhya) on 19 May 2013, scoring an equalising goal in the 92nd minute.[7] Taison scored in a 3–0 victory over [Chornomorets Odesa](/source/FC_Chornomorets_Odesa) in the [2012–13 Ukrainian Cup](/source/2012%E2%80%9313_Ukrainian_Cup) [final](/source/2013_Ukrainian_Cup_Final).[8] On 10 July 2013 Taison scored in a 3–1 victory over Chornomorets in the [Ukrainian Super Cup](/source/Ukrainian_Super_Cup).[9] In November 2019 he was sent-off after reacting to alleged [racist abuse](/source/Racism_in_association_football),[10][11] and was also given a one-match ban.[12]

### Return to Internacional

On 16 April 2021, [Internacional](/source/SC_Internacional) announced that Taison would be returning to his boyhood club after 11 years, signing a contract until 2023.[13] The athlete took a significant paycut in order to make the deal happen, refusing more lucrative offers from various other clubs in order to return to Inter.[14]

### PAOK

On 14 January 2023, Taison joined Greek club [PAOK](/source/PAOK_FC) for 1.5 years.[15] Taison won the [Greek Superleague](/source/Super_League_Greece) with PAOK in 2024, with the Brazilian scoring the winning goal against arch rivals [Aris Thessaloniki](/source/Aris_Thessaloniki_F.C.), to win the league for PAOK on the last game of the season.

## International career

In an interview with the coach of the [Ukraine national team](/source/Ukraine_national_football_team), [Mykhaylo Fomenko](/source/Mykhaylo_Fomenko) spoke of him as a possible naturalized. Taison indicated that he would be likely to accept a call-up for Ukraine if asked.[16][17][18][19] But on 22 August 2016, newly appointed manager [Tite](/source/Tite_(football_manager)) has called him up for the [Brazil national team](/source/Brazil_national_football_team). On 13 June 2017, Taison scored his first international goal in a match against [Australia](/source/Australia_men's_national_soccer_team), that ended 4–0. He scored the 3rd goal of the match.

In May 2018, he was named in Tite’s final [23 man squad](/source/2018_FIFA_World_Cup_squads#Brazil) for the [2018 World Cup](/source/2018_FIFA_World_Cup) in [Russia](/source/Russia).[20]
