Club career

Scarpa was born in Hortolândia, São Paulo, and represented Guarani, Santos, Paulínia and Desportivo Brasil before joining Fluminense in 2012.[2] He made his first team – and Série A – debut on 1 June 2014, coming on as a late substitute for Rafael Sóbis in a 1–1 home draw against Internacional.[3]

Scarpa was rarely used during the season, and was loaned to Red Bull Brasil on 22 December 2014.[4] He scored his first senior goal for the latter side the following 11 February, netting his team's first in a 3–2 Campeonato Paulista away win against Bragantino;[5] ten days later he added a further goal, scoring in a 2–2 home draw against São Bento.[6]

After featuring regularly, Scarpa returned to Flu in May 2015. He started to feature more regularly for the first team managed by Enderson Moreira, often appearing as a left back.[7] He scored his first Série A goal on 9 July, netting the game's only in a home success over Cruzeiro.[8]

On 28 September 2015, Scarpa renewed his contract until 2019,[9] and finished the year as an undisputed starter. A mainstay in Fluminense's starting eleven during the 2016 campaign, he scored eight goals in the year's Brasileirão; highlights included a double in a 2–2 away draw against Internacional.[10]

Scarpa started the 2017 season with four goals in six appearances, netting consecutive goals against Resende (1–0 home win), Portuguesa-RJ (3–0 away win), Bangu (4–0 home win) and Globo (5–2 away win); the latter came from the halfway line.[11] On 25 February, in a 0–0 home draw against Madureira, he was replaced by Richarlison at half-time after suffering an ankle injury;[12] it was later revealed that he would be staying two months out,[13] and in the meantime he further extended his contract until 2020.[14]

Palmeiras

On 15 January 2018, Gustavo Scarpa signed a five year contract with Palmeiras.[15]

International career

On 19 January 2017, Scarpa was called up by Tite for a friendly against Colombia.[16] He made his full international debut six days later, replacing Lucas Lima in the 1–0 win at the Engenhão.[17]
