Playing career
Born in Estiva Gerbi, São Paulo, Burse was a Mogi Mirim youth graduate. Promoted to the first team in 1999, he played for the club until 2002,[1] and subsequently represented Nagoya Grampus, Corinthians Alagoano, União Barbarense and the under-23 side of Universidad Católica. He retired at the age of 24 due to a serious pubis injury.[2]
Coaching career
After retiring, Burse joined his first club Mogi Mirim as a fitness coach of the under-15s. He was later appointed head coach of the category, and subsequently was in charge of the under-20s.[2]
On 29 January 2014, Burse was appointed head coach of Vitória's under-17 squad.[1] On 17 September of the following year, he was named at the helm of Palmeiras' under-20 team.[3]
Sacked by Verdão on 16 May 2017,[4] Burse returned to Vitória on 20 September and took over the under-20s.[5] Ahead of the 2018 campaign, he was also at the helm of the under-23s.
On 31 July 2018, after Vágner Mancini's dismissal, Burse was named interim coach of the main squad.[6] He returned to his previous role on 14 August, after the appointment of Paulo César Carpegiani.
On 6 November 2018, Burse was again named interim for the remaining six matches of the season, replacing sacked Carpegiani.[7] After the club's relegation, he returned to his previous role.
On 22 October 2019, Burse was named head coach of Cianorte for the upcoming campaign.[8] He left the club on 22 March 2022,[9] and returned to Vitória on 19 June, now named first team coach of the side in the Série C.[10]
Burse led Vitória to promotion in the 2022 Série B, but was dismissed on 5 February 2023 after a poor start into the new season.[11] On 8 June 2023, he was named in charge of Tombense also in the second tier,[12] but was sacked on 21 August.[13]
