Club career
Born in Mastinhos, Cadinha played in the Leixões youth academy from 1994 and 2003. Though he was given a professional contract in 2003, he could not make much impact and consequently was loaned out to Ovarense and Ribeirão. After successful spells at clubs in lower divisions, in 2013, he returned to his boyhood club.[1]
