Club career

União Leiria

Oliveira joined local U.D. Leiria's youth ranks in 2007, aged 14. On 21 April 2012, he made his first-team (and top division) debut, playing 15 minutes in a 2–3 away loss against Vitória de Guimarães on his 18th birthday.

The following weekend, Oliveira was one of only eight players fielded by Leiria – immerse in a deep financial crisis – in a 0–4 home loss against C.D. Feirense.

In May/June 2012, Filipe Oliveira was invited to a trial period with Ajax in Amsterdam. The Dutch club were impressed with his performance at the Gestion Copa Amsterdam, where he was integrated into the Ajax A1 (U19) squad, and the club subsequently invited him to a formal tryout for the team. He was however released from Ajax a month later.[1]

Benfica

He joined Benfica during the 2012 summer [2] and played for the Benfica Juniors during the 2012–13 season, winning the Portuguese Juniors Championship.

Marítimo

He joined Marítimo B during the 2013 summer.[3]
