Clayton Sampaio Pereira (born 4 April 2000), known as Clayton Sampaio or just Clayton, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Internacional.

Career

[edit]

Born in Santos, São Paulo, Clayton represented the youth sides of Santos and EC São Bernardo. In 2019, after finishing his formation, he moved abroad and joined Portuguese side Famalicão, but only played for their under-23 team.

On 18 August 2020, Clayton was announced at Campeonato de Portugal club Felgueiras 1932.[1] In July of the following year, he moved to Liga 3 side Real Massamá.[2]

On 9 July 2022, still owned by São Bernardo, Clayton joined Nacional of the Liga Portugal 2 on a two-year loan deal.[3] An undisputed starter, he signed a permanent deal with fellow second division side AVS on 6 July 2023.[4]

After being a first-choice during the season as the club achieved promotion to Primeira Liga, Clayton made his top tier debut on 10 August 2024, starting in a 1–1 home draw against former side Nacional. Late in the month, he returned to his home country and signed a four-and-a-half-year contract with Internacional in the Série A.[5]
