Internacional spell: Fernando Bob joined Sport Club Internacional on loan from Fluminense during the 2015 season. He was brought in as a defensive/central midfield option. His time at Internacional was part of a series of loans in his mid-20s as he moved between several Brazilian clubs to get playing time.

Current status: As of my last update (mid-2024), Fernando Bob has had a journeyman career with multiple loans and transfers; for the most current club status and statistics please consult live football databases or the club's official site for up-to-date roster information.
