Sérgio started his career at local - and national - giants Sporting Clube de Portugal, but never appeared in the league with the first team. In April 2003, 10% of his economic rights were sold to an investment fund along with other youth products, and he would be loaned several times in the following years, namely spending two seasons with Lisbon neighbours C.F. Os Belenenses - on 25 November 2004, before leaving for the club, he appeared for the Lions in a 4–0 win at FC Dinamo Tbilisi for the season's UEFA Cup, replacing Roudolphe Douala in the 65th minute.
After one season with Portimonense S.C. in the second division, Sérgio was released by Sporting and signed with Spanish outfit UD Salamanca,[1] appearing in roughly half of the matches during the campaign as the Castile and León side finished ninth in level two.
In the 2009 summer, Paulo Sérgio returned to his country and Algarve, signing for S.C. Olhanense, freshly promoted to the top flight, and being an undisputed first-choice over the course of two seasons, with his team managing to retain its division status. On 17 September 2010, he netted in a 2–0 home win against former team Portimonense, the first of the two official goals he would score for the club.
Sérgio played seven times in the 2006 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship qualification, scoring four goals. He was not, however, selected for the squad that appeared in the final tournament, which was held on home soil.
Previously, he appeared with the under-19's in the 2003 European Championship in Liechtenstein, netting five times in as many matches as the national team lost in the final against Italy.
