Born in São Luís, Maranhão, Willian Maranhão was a Boavista youth graduate. He made his first team debut on 21 January 2014, coming on as a second-half substitute for Thiaguinho in a 1–0 Campeonato Carioca home win over Madureira.

Willian Maranhão subsequently became a regular starter for the side, and scored his first senior goal on 13 September 2017, netting his team's third in a 3–1 home success against Tigres do Brasil, for the year's Copa Rio.[1]

In June 2018, Willian Maranhão was loaned to Série C side Santa Cruz until the end of the tournament.[2] He was a regular starter during his period at the club before terminating his loan deal on 30 August.[3]

Vasco da Gama

[edit]

On 5 September 2018, Willian Maranhão was presented at Série A side Vasco da Gama,[4] on loan until the end of the year. He made his top tier debut five days later, starting in a 0–1 away loss against Vitória.[5]

On 4 December 2018, Willian Maranhão signed a permanent deal with Vasco until the end of 2022.[6] However, he lost his starting spot in the 2019 campaign, and moved out on loan to América Mineiro until the end of the season in May of that year.[7]

Upon returning from loan, Willian Maranhão failed to appear for the club until rescinding his contract in July 2020.[8]

On 25 March 2022, Bahia announced the transfer of Willian Maranhão to Santos, who paid a R$ 500,000 fee for 70% of the player's economic rights.[11] Just hours later, his new club confirmed the deal, with the player signing a contract until December 2024.[12]

Willian Maranhão made his debut for Peixe on 5 April 2022, starting in a 0–1 Copa Sudamericana away loss against Banfield.[13] On 16 July, after just nine matches, he returned to Atlético Goianiense on loan until the end of the year.[14]
