Amaral is a talented side back who can attack from either side of the pitch. He is known for his ability to score in addition to his crossing skills. The young player was signed by
Série A side
SE Palmeiras after some stunning performances for
Fortaleza EC. Amaral featured on a regular basis for Palmeiras' first-team squad. After a decline in productivity, he fell out of favor with then-coach
Caio Junior and was loaned out to
SC Corinthians Paulista and
Atlético Mineiro, until securing a loan deal with the
Segunda División side Las Palmas. Amaral owes his nickname to his physical likeness with the seasoned Brazilian midfielder
Alexandre da Silva Mariano. Amaral was capped at the U17 and U20 levels for Brazil. ==Honours==
