Club career
Born in Orlândia, São Paulo, Wesley graduated with Botafogo-SP's youth setup, after being a sprinter when young.[1] He made his senior debuts in 2014, appearing in that year's Copa Paulista.
After being one of the Botafogo's best performers in 2015 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior (which the club finished second), Wesley made his professional debut on 31 January, starting and assisting Rodrigo Andrade in a 1–0 away win against Rio Claro for the Campeonato Paulista championship.[2] He scored his first goal on 8 February, netting his team's only in a 1–1 home draw against Ponte Preta.[3]
Wesley finished the tournament with 14 appearances and one goal, being linked to Flamengo, Palmeiras and Lille OSC.[4] On 26 May, however, he joined Santos after being acquired by Banco BMG, and was assigned to the club's under-23 squad.[5]
