Club career
Born in Felgueiras, Porto District, Moreira spent most of his youth career in the ranks of FC Porto but played only lower-level senior football until May 2014, when he and AD Oliveirense teammate Zé Tiago signed for S.C. Covilhã.[2] He appeared regularly over two Segunda Liga seasons at the club and scored in a 3–1 away win against Sporting CP B on 31 January 2016.[3]
On 31 May 2016, Moreira moved across the league to newly relegated C.F. União, on a one-year contract with the option of a second.[4] When this ended, he joined fellow second-tier team Leixões S.C. on a three-year deal in May 2018, reuniting with his former Covilhã manager Francisco Chaló.[5] He was used almost exclusively in cup games, making only one league appearance and returning to the Estádio Municipal José dos Santos Pinto on 28 December.[6]
