Lima spent the majority of his career playing for Santos FC. He was a key member of the Santos team during the 1960s, a period widely considered the club's golden era, playing alongside legends such as Pelé. He was known for his strong tackling ability and tactical awareness.

During his time at Santos, Lima won numerous titles, including multiple Campeonato Paulista (São Paulo State Championship) titles, several Taça Brasil (Brazilian Championship) titles, and two Copa Libertadores titles (South American Club Championship). He also won two Intercontinental Cups with Santos.
