Career
Internacional
Born in Beberibe, Ceará, Luis Otávio joined Internacional's youth sides in October 2022, from local side Juazeiro EE.[2] In April 2024, he signed his first professional contract with the club.
Luis Otávio made his professional – and Série A – debut on 19 October 2024, coming on as a late substitute for Wesley in a 1–0 home win over rivals Grêmio.[3][4]
Orlando City
On 26 December 2025, Otávio signed with Major League Soccer club Orlando City on a two-season contract with a club option for another year in exchange for a $3.2 million transfer fee and 60% of his rights.[5] On 7 March 2026, Otávio made his debut for Orlando City as a starter against New York City FC, but the club fell 5–0 in their joint-worst defeat in their history after their starting goalkeeper, Maxime Crépeau, received a red card in the 16th-minute of the game for handling the ball outside the penalty box.[6]
