On 29 January 2014 Marion made his Galo debut, coming on as a substitute in a 0–0 draw at Minas Futebol.[2] He scored his first goal on 9 March, netting the winner in a success at Guarani (MG).[3]

Marion made his Série A debut on 20 April, again from the bench in a 0–0 home draw against Corinthians.[4] He scored his first goal in the category on 11 May, netting his team's first in a 2–1 home win against fierce rivals Cruzeiro, and finished the campaign with 21 appearances.

On 12 February 2015 Marion was loaned to Al-Sharjah SCC, until June.[5] At the end of his loan spell with the Emirati club, he immediately moved to Joinville EC, again in a temporary deal.[6]
