#### Loan deals

Vina was subsequently loaned to Joinville on 29 June 2012, but returned to Coritiba on 9 August. On 7 January 2013, he moved to Londrina also in a temporary deal, but was dismissed in February after an indiscipline problem.
On 18 February 2013, Vina was loaned to Tupi. He left Coxa in November 2013, with his contract expiring in the following month.

### Esportivo and Anápolis

Vina joined Esportivo Bento Gonçalves ahead of the 2014 season, but signed for Anápolis on 17 February of that year. He only played in six matches for each club, before leaving.

### Náutico

On 20 March 2014, Vina moved to Série B side Náutico. Mainly a substitute, he featured in 33 league matches and scored five goals as his side avoided relegation, but refused a contract renewal in December.

### Fluminense

On 23 December 2014, Vina joined Fluminense after agreeing to a one-year deal. On his top level debut for the club, he scored the winner in a home success against his former club Joinville.
Despite becoming a starter, Vina suffered a foot fracture in June 2015 which kept him out for two months. In November, he was separated from the first team squad after failing to agree a contract renewal, and left Flu in December; he also had altercations with his representative at the time.

### Atlético Paranaense

On 18 December 2015, Vina moved to fellow first division side Atlético Paranaense. Initially a starter during the Campeonato Paranaense, he fell down the pecking order before being loaned to Náutico in August.

#### Loan to Bahia

On 29 May 2017, after spending the first five months of the season separated from Atlético's first team squad, Vinícius joined Bahia still in the top tier, signing until December 2018. He was a regular starter at the club, but his spell was mainly linked to a match against rivals Vitória, where he supposedly celebrated a goal in front of Vitória's supporters, which led to a widespread confusion and nine players being sent off from the match, himself included;

### Atlético Mineiro

On 11 January 2019, Vina agreed to a two-year deal with Atlético Mineiro. He featured sparingly and ended the campaign as a backup option.

### Ceará

Vina moved to Ceará on a two-year contract on 9 January 2020. He changed his nicknamed throughout the season, being called Vina and becoming a key unit for the club, and scored a career-best 23 goals overall during the 2020 season.
On 17 February 2021, Vina renewed his contract until December 2024. He lost his starting spot under Guto Ferreira during a period of the 2021 campaign, but still ended the season as a starter after regaining his starting spot in August.
In 2022, Vina's form decreased, and he ended the season with more bookable offences (16 yellow cards, two ejections) than goals (12). In October of that year, he was fined after receiving two yellow cards (and being sent off) within three minutes in a 1–1 home draw against Goiás. Ceará also suffered top tier relegation.

### Al-Hazem

On 28 July 2023, Vina joined Saudi Professional League club Al-Hazem.
