Career
He started in the youth categories of Internacional, known only by his first name, Marcos. Inter's president at the time, Fernando Carvalho, suggested the change to only Camozzatto, the surname of his Italian origins, because it could be more attractive for the European leagues, where the boy could get dual citizenship (in a similar case of his fellows from Inter's youth team, Rafael Sobis and Marcelo Labarthe – differently from them, he would be known only by his surname).[1]
On 16 June 2010, Club Brugge signed the Brazilian right-back from League rival Standard Liège on a three-year contract. [2]
