Club career
Born in Nova Hartz, Rio Grande do Sul, Ruschel started his career at Juventude.[6] He made his senior debut on 20 January 2009, starting in a 1–0 Campeonato Gaúcho home win against Sapucaiense.
Despite appearing regularly in the year's Gauchão, Ruschel never established himself a starter for Juventude, and subsequently served loans at Pelotas and Luverdense. In May 2013, he joined Chapecoense permanently.[7]
On 7 June 2016, Ruschel returned to Chape, now in a temporary deal until the end of the campaign.[15] He acted as a second-choice to Dener as his side reached the 2016 Copa Sudamericana Finals for the first time ever.
LaMia Flight 2933 accident
On 28 November 2016, whilst travelling with Chapecoense to the aforementioned finals, Ruschel was one of only six survivors of the LaMia Flight 2933 accident in the Colombian village of Cerro Gordo, La Unión, Antioquia.[16] The first person to arrive at the hospital, he had a back injury which was later fixed through surgery.[17] A few days later, a video was recorded with Ruschel walking again.[18]
On 7 August 2017, Ruschel played his first match since the incident, playing in the 2017 Joan Gamper Trophy for the first 35 minutes and receiving a standing ovation along with his other 2 surviving teammates.[19]
