Felipe Garcia dos Prazeres (born 10 January 1988), simply known as Felipe, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a goalkeeper.

Club career

Born in São Vicente, São Paulo, Felipe graduated from Santos's prolific youth setup, and was promoted to the main squad in 2006, initially as a third-choice. On 6 September 2006 he made his first team debut, starting in a 1–0 home win against Cruzeiro, for that year's Copa Sudamericana.[1]

Felipe made his Série A debut four days later, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 away draw against Fortaleza.[2] On 5 October, in a derby against Corinthians, he replaced Fábio Costa in the sixth minute of the match, after the latter suffered an injury, and was a key unit in his side's 3–0 away win.[3]

Still as a second-choice in the following campaigns, Felipe was loaned to Paraná[4] and subsequently Portuguesa Santista[5] before returning to Peixe in May 2009, after another injury from Fábio Costa.[6] He was made a starter for the rest of the season, appearing in 24 league matches.

Felipe started 2010 as a first-choice, but subsequently lost his spot to another youth graduate, Rafael.[7] After an altercation with supporters through a social media, he was left out of the squad, and loaned to Avaí[8] and Náutico,[9] respectively.

On 3 January 2013 Felipe joined Timbu permanently, signing a two-year deal.[10] On 1 October he left the club, and moved to Fluminense.[11]

After being mainly a backup to Diego Cavalieri, Felipe was released in December 2014. On 6 May of the following year he signed for Portuguesa, in Série C.[12]
