Estrela da Amadora in the same league to Spain's Pontevedra CF, a side in the Segunda División B. The Galicians, in turn, after the move was made permanent in summer 2007, loaned the player several times during his contract, and he totalled 26 matches and six goals in the Segunda División for Girona FC and Levante UD, before returning to Pontevedra in January 2010 (also had a brief loan spell back in Brazil).Igor suffered two relegations in 2010–11, one with Pontevedra and the other with CD Tenerife, joining the latter – in the second tier – in January 2011, on loan. In July 2011 he signed with another team in the country, UD Salamanca, moving to the Super League Greece with Panthrakikos F.C. in the summer of 2013 after the club folded.
