Born in Bissau in Guinea-Bissau, Baró played in Sporting CP's youth teams before joining FC Porto in 2014.[1] He made his professional debut for the reserves in LigaPro on 21 January 2018, playing the last three minutes of a 1–1 home draw against F.C.

Baró was given the first team's number 8 shirt ahead of the 2019–20 season, inheriting it from Yacine Brahimi.[6] He made his debut in the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round first leg on 7 August, starting in a 1–0 win away to FC Krasnodar and making way for Luis Díaz on 55 minutes.[7] Ten days later he played his first game in the Primeira Liga, again starting a 4–0 home win against Vitória FC.[8]
