Career

Born in Propriá, Bobô started in his hometown club, Esporte Clube Propriá, moving as an 18-year-old to Portugal, to join Campomaiorense youth ranks.

After several years in Portuguese lower divisions, Bobô made his professional debut for Moreirense on 29 August 2010 in a home win against Estoril Praia.[1] representing the second tier team for two seasons, with more than a dozen league goals. In 2012, he moved to Hungary, joining Vasas,[2] in the Hungarian second tier, scoring only three times in nearly 20 caps.

A year later, Bobô returned to Portugal, joining Boavista in 2013 in the third tier.[3] In January 2014, he had a particular prolific spell, scoring 12 goals in 13 matches sparking interest in his home country.[4] With the return of Boavista to the Primeira Liga, Bobô made his debut in the first tier on 17 August 2014, in a match against Braga.[5] He left Boavista in 2015 to play for AR São Martinho in the Campeonato de Portugal.[6]
