During his career he played mainly for F.C. Porto, never being more than a reserve player during his 14-year spell - which also included loans to F.C. Paços de Ferreira, Varzim Sport Clube and Académica de Coimbra - as he was barred by for instance legendary João Domingos Pinto (who appeared in more than 600 official matches for the club) in the right-back position.
In 1996, already aged 33, he moved to F.C. Felgueiras in division two, where he finished his career after one year. Bandeirinha was never capped for Portugal, but was a last-minute addition for the squad at the 1986 FIFA World Cup,[1] after S.L. Benfica's António Veloso was suspended due to a doping test, later proven to be fake.
