On 11 December, he tested positive for furosemide and sibutramine metabolites after a match against Grêmio Esportivo Brasil, being suspended until further notice. The banned substances were found in prescription drugs he had been taking to fight his obesity problem.

Walter spent the vast majority of his first season as a backup to Radamel Falcao, but managed to finish with ten goals all competitions comprised in 25 appearances. On 15 October 2011 he scored four in a domestic cup match against C.A. Pêro Pinheiro, in an 8–0 away win.

In August 2010, Walter joined FC Porto from Portugal, signing a five-year contract.

(a UK shell company, directed by Mário Jorge Queiroz e Castro) for €2.125 million; Sport Club Internacional announced in its annual accounts that the club had received R$9,192,000 in transfer fee (around €4 million), but part of that was re-distributed to third parties for R$1,980,033– it was also reported that the side owned 50% of the player's economic rights, with the other half belonging to third parties.

Walter played his first official game for Porto on 19 August 2010 in a UEFA Europa League play-off round against K.R.C. Genk, featuring eight minutes in a 3–0 away win. On 16 October 2010 he made his first start, scoring a hat-trick against A.D. Os Limianos for the season's Portuguese Cup, in a 4–1 home success; the following month, again as a starter, he netted his first league goal, at home against Portimonense SC (2–0).

Walter played 11 matches in his first season in the Série A, but failed to score any goals. In May 2009, he suffered a serious knee injury which sidelined him for several months.

Walter played with Brazil under-20s in the 2009 South American Championship. He scored five goals in the tournament held in Venezuela, being crowned top scorer as the national team won their tenth title in the category.
