Club career

Born in Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais, Wesley joined Atlético Mineiro's youth setup in 2019 from his hometown club Tupi. He received an emergency call up to the first-team squad ahead of a Série A match against Athletico Paranaense on 18 November 2020, after several players of the team had tested positive for COVID-19.[1] He came on as a last-minute substitute for his U20s teammate Talison, who had been picked for the match under the same circumstances, as Atlético suffered a 2–0 home defeat.[2]
