Born in Anápolis, Goiás, Diego Ângelo started his professional career in São Paulo state with Santos FC. After signing a six-month contract in July 2005,[1] he agreed to a new one-year deal in January of the following year.[2]

In 2009–10, Diego Ângelo played all 30 league matches for Naval, who finished in a best-ever eighth place. During that time period he also signed a pre-contract with Genoa CFC,[9] after the Italian Serie A club agreed a fee with the Portuguese.[10]
