Career

=Flamengo=

In 2006, Lomba[http://www.flamengo.com.br/site/perfil/perfil.php?id=7 Player Profile at Flamengo.com.br] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100328042829/http://www.flamengo.com.br/site/perfil/perfil.php?id=7 |date=2010-03-28 }} (in Portuguese) had his first chance in the professional team, but only in 2008, in a Campeonato Carioca derby match against Vasco da Gama on April 6, 2008, he had played his first official match for the club, the match ended in a 2–2 draw. Despite this first chance, Lomba didn't have much space as he was, at that time, the squad's third goalkeeper after Diego and Bruno.

In 2010, with the departure of Diego for Ceará, the young archer became the team's second keeper, and gradually established himself as a starter after Bruno had left the club due to criminal issues.

For the 2011 season Flamengo loaned Lomba to Brazilian Série B club Ponte Preta to get more first team experience.[http://globoesporte.globo.com/futebol/noticia/2011/01/marcelo-lomba-acerta-com-ponte.html Marcelo Lomba acerta com a Ponte] (in Portuguese). Globoesporte.com. 2011-01-12. Retrieved 2011-01-20. But due to contractual problems, he couldn't be loaned and returned to Flamengo.

==Bahia (loan)==

After few more months training with Flamengo, Lomba has been loaned to Bahia until May 2012.
