Club career

Born in Guimarães, Almeida played three Primeira Liga matches for Moreirense F.C. over three separate seasons, totalling roughly 30 minutes always as a second-half substitute. His first was on 23 May 2015, in a 2–1 away win against F.C. Arouca. [2] [3] [4]

Almeida was loaned to LigaPro side Sporting CP B for two years on 5 August 2016, with a buying option. [5] He scored his first goal in that league nine days later, equalising an eventual 2–1 away victory over S.C. Covilhã. [6]

Subsequently, Almeida represented clubs in the third division, starting out at Berço SC (still owned by Moreirense) then switching to A.R.C. Oleiros in the summer of 2020. [7]
