Club career

Having started his career with Clube de Regatas do Flamengo, Sávio impressed Real Madrid enough to earn a January 1998 move, helping the La Liga powerhouse to three UEFA Champions League and the 2001 national championship. In 2002-03, he served a loan stint with Ligue 1's FC Girondins de Bordeaux

In the following season, Sávio returned to Spain and was one of the most important players in Real Zaragoza, for which he played three seasons. In May 2006 he returned to Brazil and Flamengo on a free transfer, signing a contract until December 2007.

However, on January 5, 2007 it was announced that Sávio would be transferred to Spanish club Real Sociedad, for which he played his first league game on January 21, against Valencia CF. [ cite web|title=Tactical Formation|work=Football-Lineups.com
