Club career

Santos

Arthur Gomes was born in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, and joined Santos' youth setup in November 2012,[1] after representing São Paulo, Uberlândia and Poliesportivo.[2][3] In January 2015, he signed a two-year professional deal with the former.[4]

In September 2016, after Gabriel's departure to Internazionale, Arthur Gomes was called up to train with the main squad by manager Dorival Júnior.[5] He was first included in a matchday squad on 19 October, for a Copa do Brasil match against Internacional,[6] but remained an unused substitute in the 0–2 away loss and subsequent elimination.[7]

On 6 November 2016 Arthur Gomes made his first team – and Série A – debut, coming on as a late substitute for Jean Mota in a 2–1 away win against Ponte Preta.[8] The following 4 January, after featuring in one further match with the main squad, he renewed his contract until December 2021.[9]

Arthur Gomes scored his first professional goal on 3 February 2017, netting his team's fourth in a 6–2 Campeonato Paulista home routing of Linense.[10] After only appearing rarely with Dorival and Levir Culpi, he was made a starter by interim manager Elano, and scored his first goal in the top tier on 4 November by netting the first in a 3–1 home win against Atlético Mineiro.[11]

Arthur Gomes made his Copa Libertadores debut on 1 March 2018, replacing Jean Mota in a 2–0 away loss against Real Garcilaso.[12]

Chapecoense (loan)

On 1 May 2019, Arthur Gomes was loaned to fellow top tier club Chapecoense until the end of the season.[13]

Atlético Goianiense (loan)

On 23 March 2021, Arthur Gomes was loaned to Atlético Goianiense also in the first division, until the end of the year.[14] After featuring regularly, he left the club on 7 August after accepting an offer from a club from abroad.[15]

Estoril

On 9 August 2021, Arthur Gomes moved abroad after agreeing to a three-year contract with Portuguese Primeira Liga side Estoril; Santos retained 50% of the player's economic rights.[16]
