Club career

Early career

Born in Baixo Guandu, Espírito Santo, Pedro Lucas impressed Ronaldo at the age of nine, after his father uploaded videos of him playing and posted on social media. He also spent a week on trial at Real Madrid, after being sponsored by Ronaldo.

Grêmio

In February 2014, aged 12, Pedro Lucas and his staff agreed to join the youth setup of Grêmio, starting from March. On 31 August 2018, he signed his first professional contract with the club, agreeing to a three-year deal and having a € 40 million release clause.

On 28 November 2020, Pedro Lucas renewed his contract with the Tricolor until 2024. He made his first team debut on 3 March of the following year, coming on as a second-half substitute for Thaciano in a 4–1 Campeonato Gaúcho home routing of Brasil de Pelotas.

Pedro Lucas scored his first professional goal on 22 March 2021, netting the equalizer in a 1–1 away draw against São José-RS. After six matches in the 2021 Campeonato Gaúcho, he moved down to the under-23 team for the remainder of the year.

Pedro Lucas returned to the first team of Grêmio during the 2022 season, being mainly a backup option as they achieved promotion from the Série B.

Loan to Ceará

On 13 February 2023, Pedro Lucas was announced at second division side Ceará on loan for the remainder of the year. After making his debut for the club in a Copa do Nordeste match under head coach Gustavo Morínigo, he only made one appearance under Guto Ferreira before playing the last five matches of the season, now under Vagner Mancini.

International career

In October 2019, after previously featuring in friendlies with the side during the year, Pedro Lucas was called up to the Brazil national under-17 team in the place of Reinier for the 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup. After starting the tournament as a backup, he featured in all the four remaining matches as Brazil lifted the trophy for the fourth time.
