After playing 2 years in Russia in 2009 Giba moved back to Brazil and played for [[Esporte Clube Pinheiros|Pinheiros]] where in the first season with the club he won a bronze medal of the [[Brazilian Men's Volleyball Superliga|Brazilian Superliga]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Pinheiros/Sky picks up third place in Brazil's men's Superliga |url=http://www.fivb.ch/viewHeadlines.asp?No=23808&Language=en |access-date=1 October 2014 |date=29 April 2010 |publisher=FIVB}}</ref> Over the last years of his career he also played  for [[Club Ciudad de Bolívar]] in Argentina and briefly for Al-Nasr Dubai in the [[United Arab Emirates]] it is last club.<ref>[http://www.clarin.com/deportes/Giba-Argentina-sumarse-poderoso-Bolivar_0_699530315.html Clarin - Giba llega a Argentina]</ref>

==International career==

===1995–2001===
Giba debuted for the Brazilian National Team at the age of 18 in 1995 and in that year already he won his first major title which was the [[1995 Men's South American Volleyball Championship|South American Championship]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fivb.org/viewPressRelease.asp?No=32125&Language=en#.V9XlBph95PY |title=Giba reflects on 16 years of South American Championships |publisher=FIVB |access-date=September 28, 2016}}</ref> As the result Brazil qualified to the [[1997 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Grand Champions Cup|World Grand Champions Cup]] in 1997 as the continental champion and eventually won the tournament. In the subsequent years Brazil came up short in both the [[1998 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship|1998 World Championship in Japan]], where they lost a 5-set semifinal against the two-time defending champions [[Italy men's national volleyball team|Italy]] and in [[Volleyball at the 2000 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2000 Sydney Olympics]] where after winning their group without losing a match, Brazilian team was upset in the quarterfinals losing 1:3 to [[Argentina men's national volleyball team|Argentina]]. In 2001 Giba won his first [[2001 FIVB Volleyball World League|World League]] title, while Brazil beat 8-time winners Italy in the final.

===2002–2007===
The following years are described as the Golden Era of Brazilian volleyball where Giba was a leader of a team, coached by [[Bernardo Rezende]], which featured such players as [[Dante Amaral|Dante]], [[André Nascimento|André]], [[Gustavo Endres|Gustavo]], [[André Heller (volleyball)|André Heller]], [[Ricardo Garcia (volleyball)|Ricardo Garcia]] and [[Sérgio Santos (volleyball)|Sérgio Santos]]. After losing the [[2002 FIVB Volleyball World League|2002 World League]] final to [[Russia men's national volleyball team|Russia]] in [[Belo Horizonte]], the team won all of the next 11 major international competitions, including: 5 World League titles, 2 World Championships, 2 World Cups, the World Grand Champions Cup and the Olympic gold medal.

At the [[2002 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship|2002 World Championship]] in Argentina, Brazil took revenge on both Italy (beating 3-time defending champions 3–2 in the quarterfinals) and Russia (winning in a dramatic five-set final).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fivb.ch/En/Volleyball/Competitions/WorldChampionships/Men/2002/Index.asp |title=Brazil takes home the World Championship title |publisher=FIVB |date=October 13, 2002 |access-date=September 29, 2014}}</ref> It was the first World Championships title for the Brazilian National Team in history. In 2003 led by Giba the Brazilian team won [[2003 FIVB Volleyball World League|the first]] of five consecutive World League titles, beating [[Serbia men's national volleyball team|Serbia and Montenegro]] in the final (31–29 in the fifth-set tie-break).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fivb.org/EN/Infomedia/PressRelease.asp?No=1098 |title=Brazil edges Serbia and Montenegro in the tightest of finals tiebreakers |publisher=FIVB |date=July 13, 2003 |access-date=September 29, 2014}}</ref>

At the [[Volleyball at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2004 Summer Olympic Games]] in Athens, Giba was at his best helping Brazilian National Team to win its second gold medal in history and being voted the tournament's Most Valuable Player. On 29 August 2004, in front of 10,000 fans at the [[Peace and Friendship Stadium]] in Piraeus, the Brazilians overcame Italy 3:1 in the gold medal match.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://edition.cnn.com/2004/SPORT/08/29/olympics.sunday.roundup/ |title=Golden Brazil win volleyball title |publisher=CNN |date=August 29, 2004 |access-date=September 29, 2014}}</ref><ref name="Olympics 2004">{{cite web |url=http://www.fivb.org/EN/Volleyball/Competitions/Olympics/2004/Men/Press/Press_29.asp |title=Brazil claim gold in magical performance |publisher=FIVB |date=August 29, 2004 |access-date=August 12, 2012}}</ref> His tremendous form continued during the next couple of seasons when in addition to winning titles, Giba was also awarded the MVP trophies for his performance at the [[2006 FIVB Volleyball World League|2006 World League]], the [[2006 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship|2006 World Championship]]<ref>{{cite web |url=http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200612/04/eng20061204_328054.html |title=Brazil defends men's volleyball world championship title |publisher=People's Daily |date=December 4, 2006 |access-date=September 29, 2014}}</ref> and the [[2007 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Cup|2007 World Cup]]. In that period he was considered by many to be the best volleyball player in the world. In 2006 he was given [[Prêmio Brasil Olímpico]] as the best Brazilian athlete of the year.<ref>[https://www.olympic.org/gilberto-godoy-filho Gilberto Godoy Filho About in Olympic Games]</ref>

===2008–2012===
[[File:World League Semifinals (5921250377).jpg|190px|thumb|left|Giba in semi-final of the World League 2011]]
In 2008 with 32 year old Giba still in the starting lineup Brazil began to lose its aura of invincibility. The first upset came in the final tournament of the [[2008 FIVB Volleyball World League|World League]] held in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. Playing in front of the home crowd Brazil was expected to win sixth title in row. In the semifinal however they were shocked  by the [[United States men's national volleyball team|United States]] losing the match 0:3. Later on that year Brazilian Team was able to reach the final of the [[Volleyball at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|Beijing Olympics]], but failed to defend their gold medal as they again they lost to the US, this time in four sets.<ref>[http://www.espn.com/oly/summer08/fanguide/athlete?athlete=31352 ESPN with Agence France-Presse Giba]</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/olympics/2008-08-24-1210424456_x.htm |title=US wins gold medal in men's volleyball |publisher=USA Today |date=August 24, 2008 |access-date=October 1, 2014}}</ref><ref>[http://www.fivb.org/EN/volleyball/competitions/Olympics/2008/Men/Teams/Team_Roster.asp?TRN=MOG2008&TEAM=BRA Brazil team in Olympic Games 2008 About]</ref>

The following year Giba was included in a rebuilt squad which bounced back from the disappointing losses and regained the [[2009 FIVB Volleyball World League|World League]] title. In the final played in [[Belgrade]], Brazil faced [[Serbia men's national volleyball team|Serbia]] and more than 22,000 of its supporters and won in a close five-setter.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fivb.org/EN/Volleyball/Competitions/WorldLeague/2009/viewPressRelease.asp?No=21752 |title=Brazil is 2009 World League champion |publisher=FIVB |date=July 26, 2009 |access-date=October 1, 2014}}</ref> In 2010 Giba lost his spot in the starting lineup, as Rezende preferred to use younger Dante and [[Murilo Endres|Murilo]] as starting spikers. Giba however remained the team's captain and was still an important part of the national team, winning his eight [[2010 FIVB Volleyball World League|World League]] title and the third [[2010 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship|World Championship]] in the tournament held in [[Italy]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fivb.org/EN/Volleyball/Competitions/WorldChampionships/2010/Men/viewPressRelease.asp?No=26535 |title=Brazil continue golden reign with third world crown |publisher=FIVB |date=October 10, 2010 |access-date=October 1, 2014}}</ref>

In 2011, with Dante injured, Giba returned to the starting lineup and was close to add another [[2011 FIVB Volleyball World League|World League]] title to his collection. He came up short however, as the Brazilian Team lost a close five-set final to Russia. At the [[Volleyball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2012 London Olympics]], with Giba again used mostly as a reserve captain, Brazil reached the gold medal match again. Leading 2:0 and having a commanding advantage in the third set in the final against Russia, Giba was brought on court for his international farewell. However Brazil failed to convert on a couple of match points in the third set and were eventually beaten in five sets, so Giba and his teammates settled for the silver medal again.<ref name="Olympics 2012">{{cite web |url=http://www.fivb.org/en/olympics/london2012/viewPressRelease.asp?No=36516&Language=en |title=Russia come from behind to win Olympic title after 32 years, Brazil and Italy get silver and bronze |publisher=FIVB |date=August 12, 2012 |access-date=August 12, 2012}}</ref> After the Olympics, he retired from the [[Brazil male's national volleyball team|Brazilian national team]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fivb.org/viewPressRelease.asp?No=36518&Language=en |title=Brazilian legend Giba calls time on career |publisher=FIVB |date=August 12, 2012 |access-date=August 12, 2012}}</ref>

==Style of play==
Giba is not very tall for a volleyball player but he made up his height limitation with his unique physical skills and jumping abilities. In his playing days he was considered one of the best wing spikers in the world. Giba was not only appreciated for his spectacular play but he also had desire, appeal and drive that made him loved by volleyball fans all over the world. He was named a captain of the national team because of his leadership skills. He was recognized for his highly energetic personality which was helping to motivate the whole [[Brazil]]ian team to play its best. Brazil was considered nearly unbeatable in the 2000s and Giba was a big part of its success.<ref>[http://www.topendsports.com/athletes/volleyball/giba.htm Topendsports: Giba]</ref><ref>[http://www.skysports.com/olympics/news/21786/7033892/giba Giba in Sky Sports]</ref>
