About the player
Ericson da Silva came through Ponte Preta's youth ranks before a spell at Amparo, then joined Grêmio's academy in 2015. He signed with Grêmio's senior squad in 2017 and made a single Série A appearance that year. A loan to SER Caxias in 2020 brought five appearances in the Campeonato Gaúcho before he returned to Grêmio that July.
He was also registered with the first-team squad during Grêmio's 2017 Copa Libertadores and 2018 Recopa Sudamericana triumphs, though his involvement stayed with the youth and reserve setup rather than the pitch in either competition.
A free transfer took him to Botafogo-SP in April 2022. He established himself as a starter in both Série B and the Campeonato Paulista, and by June of that year he had put together a run of eleven consecutive starts under coach Paulo Baier. Across his time at the club he has made close to 96 league appearances, scoring three goals, including one in the 2025 Série B campaign. His contract runs until the end of November 2026. He has not been capped by Brazil at senior level.
