Career Born in Pesqueira, Pernambuco, Micael joined Sport Recife's youth sides at the age of 12. He made his first team debut on 11 January 2025, starting in a 1–1 Campeonato Pernambucano away draw against Afogados, as the club fielded an under-20 squad.
Back to the under-20 squad after two further appearances, Micael only returned to the first team for the 2026 state league, and scored his first goal on 14 January of that year, in a 2–0 home win over Retrô. Late in the month, he scored the winner in a 2–1 success over rivals Santa Cruz.

On 20 July 2026, before the match between São Caetano and São José-SP for the first round of Copa Paulista, Micael was sent off by the referee Gustavo Holanda Souza because, according to the referee, he urinated next to the reserve bench. He was replaced by Tchê Tchê, who scored a goal in the match. The game ended in a 2–1 victory for São José-SP.
