Leonan joined Atlético Mineiro in 2013, after impressing in a trial period.[2] He was promoted to the first team ahead of the 2016 season by manager Diego Aguirre, but only made his professional debut on 23 October of that year by starting in a 3–0 home win against Figueirense for the Série A championship.[3]

In 2018, Leonan joined Fortaleza on loan and took part in the 2018 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B winning campaign.

Leonan joined Santa Cruz Futebol Clube in October 2020. In 2021, he took part in the campaign that relegated the club to Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.

In 2022, Leonan joined Clube do Remo, a football club based in Belém that plays in Campeonato Brasileiro Série C. During the season, Leonan missed the decisive penalty shoot-out against Cruzeiro that would advance Remo to the next round of Copa do Brasil.[4] In 2023, Leonan missed another penalty in the Copa do Brasil shoot-out, this time against Sport Club Corinthians Paulista, contributing to another elimination.[5] Leonan played the finals of Campeonato Paraense, but his club was defeated by Águia de Marabá Futebol Clube,[6] a club that had never been state champion.
