Born in Marco de Canaveses, Porto District of Brazilian descent, Wesllem played youth football for four teams including FC Porto. He spent the vast majority of his senior career also in Portugal, but mostly in the lower leagues.

In the summer of 2012, after a further two years in the second level, Wesllem moved to the Cypriot Second Division with Anagennisi Deryneia FC. On 12 August 2013 he signed with another side in the country, AEK Kouklia FC.[2] He made his first appearance in the First Division – as the club – against AEK Larnaca FC on the 31st, playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–1 home win.[3]
