Club career Lajeadense Born in Marau, Rio Grande do Sul, Laércio represented Gaúcho, Passo Fundo, Ypiranga-RS and Lajeadense as a youth. In January 2012, he moved abroad and joined Swedish side Helsingborgs IF on loan.

Laércio was promoted to Lajeadense's first team for the 2013 season, and made his senior debut on 17 February of that year by starting and scoring the opener in a 3–0 Campeonato Gaúcho home win against Santa Cruz-RS. He began to appear regularly during the Série D, but spent the first half of the 2014 campaign sidelined due to an injury.

Caxias On 12 December 2016, Laércio was presented at Caxias. The following 15 July, he was loaned to Boa Esporte in the Série B until the end of the year, but featured rarely for the side.
