Career

Fabio Aurelio played in the first team at his youth club São Paulo from 1997. After the Olympic Games in 2000 , the defender moved to Spain for Valencia CF and signed a contract for six years. In the 2001/02 season he won the Spanish championship title with Valencia and was thus able to celebrate his first major success. The 2003/04 season was also a very successful season for his club. However, Fabio Aurelio had to take a break for the entire season due to a broken leg and only made two appearances each in the Primera División and in the UEFA Cup .

In the following season he coped with his injury and was able to look back on more appearances for the Spanish champions. In the 2005/06 season he played in 24 of the 38 league games and scored two goals. Also in the UI Cup 2006 Aurelio was part of the team at Valencia CF, but they lost in the final against Hamburger SV .

From 2006 to 2010 Fabio Aurelio played after a free transfer at Liverpool FC , where he again worked under Rafael Benítez , his former successful coach at Valencia CF. According to Aurelio, this was the main reason for his move to the then English record champions.
