Career

Born in Fernando Prestes, São Paulo, Gustavo Henrique had failed trials at São Paulo, Jabaquara, Novorizontino and Guarani before applying to a college in the United States in late 2016.

On 21 January 2021, Bahia announced the signing of Gustavo Henrique on loan for the entire season. On 20 October, he agreed to a permanent three-year contract with the club, effective as of the following January.
