Vinicius Mello made his professional debut for Sport Club Internacional on 27 February 2021, starting in the 1-0 Campeonato Gaúcho win against Juventude, among a very rejuvenated side.

During the start of this 2021 season, Vinicius was one of the most brilliant of Inter under-20s, scoring 5 goals and providing 1 assist in the first 4 games, having also signed a contract with the club until 2023, with a reported release clause of 60 million euros.

In May 2021, he was part of the Copa Libertadores squad who played the game against Always Ready, also playing the semi-final of the Copa do Brasil Sub-20 at the end of the month.

He played his first Série A game for Inter on 16 June 2021, replacing Yuri Alberto at the 76th minute of a 0-1 home loss against Atlético Minero.

On 13 December 2021, Mello joined Major League Soccer expansion side Charlotte FC.
