club did not win any title, Rafael Grampola still had a good season, being top scorer in both Campeonato Brasiliense and 2016 Copa Verde. Bragantino In June 2016, Rafael Grampola signed for Bragantino, to play in 2016 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B. He scored seven goals in the tournament, but it was not enough to save the team from relegation. Towards the end of the season there was interest in him from Paysandu, but he stayed at Bragantino for the 2017 second division Campeonato Paulista season, scoring eight goals to help the club return to the top division as runners-up. Joinville In May 2017, Rafael Grampola transferred to Joinville to play in 2017 Campeonato Brasileiro Série C. He scored 13 goals in 15 games, including four in the 8–1 win over Mogi Mirim, and finished as top scorer in the competition. He followed this with seven goals, including two hat-tricks, in the 2017 Copa Santa Catarina. His total of 20 goals in 19 games made him the top scorer in Santa Catarina state football in 2017. In the 2018 Campeonato Catarinense he was joint top scorer with nine goals, and was chosen as joint best forward in the end of championship awards. However he could not prevent Joinville from suffering relegation from 2018 Campeonato Brasileiro Série C in the second half of the year. Série A with Paraná With relegation confirmed and the season over, Joinville extended Rafael Grampola's contract, and a loan move was agreed to transfer him to Paraná for the remainder of the 2018 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A season. He made his top-flight debut on 5 August 2018 against Ceará, a game that ended in a 1–0 defeat. He scored his first (and only) goal of the campaign in a 1–1 draw with Chapecoense on 5 September 2018. Return to Joinville At the start of 2016, Rafael Grampola returned to Joinville. He lost his place in the team during 2019 Campeonato Catarinense and was not registered for the Série D squad, and in May 2019 his contract with the club was terminated. Brasil de Pelotas Soon after leaving Joinville, Rafael Grampola was confirmed as a Brasil de Pelotas player, joining the team to play 2019 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B.
