On 3 September, he made his debut in a 1–0 defeat against Atlético Paranaense. On 19 January 2016, he signed permanently with the club, after agreeing to a four-year deal.

After being rarely used in Atlético Mineiro, Mansur joined Sport on 26 June 2016 to get more opportunities and signed a contract which would keep him at the club till May 2017. However, he was sparingly used and made 13 appearances. On 30 January 2018, he joined newly promoted side Paraná on a loan deal until the end of the season.
