Club career
Early career
Amauri was trialed at Palmeiras,[1] the club of his place of birth, São Paulo state, but failed to impress. At the age of 19, he went to Santa Catarina state to work[2] and played for a local club at Santa Catarina State League 2nd Division. Santa Catarina Clube was invited to Torneo di Viareggio in Italy,at which he showed his talent to scouts; he was signed by a club from the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland, AC Bellinzona.[2][4] He scored once in 5 appearances.
Parma and loans
After half-season in the Swiss Nationalliga B and Nationalliga A/B playoffs, he played for Napoli in 2000–01, due to the abolish of non-EU quota in the mid season.[6] Amauri until 2010 heard he was actually signed by Parma and on loan to Napoli, instead of signed by Napoli directly at the hearing of Caso Parmalat.[7]
