Club career

Fidalgo was born in Caniçal. A youth product of C.D. Nacional, he was promoted to the first team in 2000, but only totalled 18 appearances in his first two seasons. Afterwards, he served three consecutive loan stints, two of those with Madeiran neighbours A.D. Camacha and C.F. União in the third division; in between, he spent the 2006–07 campaign with Cypriot First Division club AEK Larnaca FC. [2]

In 2009–10 another loan ensued, now to Académica de Coimbra alongside his teammate Bruno Amaro. [3] For the following season the move was made permanent, and he scored on his league debut on 15 August 2010, helping to defeat title holders S.L. Benfica 2–1 away from home; [4] he finished the campaign as the Students' top scorer, in a narrow escape from relegation from the Primeira Liga. [5] [6]
