Douglas became an undisputed starter during the 2016 season, renewing his contract until 2021 in February.[3] He scored his first goal on 13 September of that year in a 4–2 home win against Atlético Mineiro.[4]

PAOK[edit]

On 1 July 2019, PAOK announced the arrival of Douglas Augusto from Corinthians, signing a four-year contract. In January, Douglas was loaned by Corinthians to EC Bahia, and the 22-year-old subsequently made seven appearances for the latter in the 2019 Série A season. Last year, Douglas began the 2018 Série A season with Fluminense FC, but he later transferred to Corinthians for €1 million in the summer.[5] For 2019–20 and 2020–21, he was a key member of the team. In the final for the Greek cup on 22 May 2021, PAOK faced Olympiacos, with PAOK winning 2–1.
