Mayara transferred from Centro Olímpico to Tyresö in January 2014, as one of four Brazilians to join the Swedish club.[1]
Mayara was an unused substitute in Tyresö's 4–3 defeat by Wolfsburg in the 2014 UEFA Women's Champions League Final.[2] Tyresö became insolvent in 2014 and were kicked out of the 2014 Damallsvenskan season, expunging all their results and making all their players free agents. The Stockholm County Administrative Board published the players' salaries, showing Mayara was a middle range earner at SEK 30 980 per month.[3]
She returned to Centro Olímpico for the club's 2014 Campeonato Brasileiro de Futebol Feminino campaign.[4]
Following two seasons in which she played in Spain, for Zaragoza and Málaga, respectively, Mayara decided to retire from playing in 2019 to take an administrative role with Club Athletico Paranaense.[5]
Mayara made her senior debut for Brazil in March 2013, in a 1–1 friendly draw with France in Rouen.[6] In July 2013 she represented Brazil at the 2013 Summer Universiade in Kazan, Russia.[7]
