Football career

Born in Fazendas de Almeirim, Santarém District, Bragança spent his entire youth career with Sporting CP. On 10 January 2019, he was loaned to LigaPro club S.C. Farense until the end of the season.[1] He scored his first goal on 14 April to open a 3–1 home win over G.D. Estoril Praia,[2] and followed it five days later with another in a 1–1 draw with F.C. Penafiel also at the Estádio de São Luís.[3]

On 9 August 2019, Bragança was loaned again to the second tier, this time to Estoril.[4] He was sent off on 3 November for headbutting Académico de Viseu FC's Kelvin Medina, and received a two-match ban.[5]

Bragança made his Sporting debut on 24 September 2020 in the UEFA Europa League third qualifying round at home to Aberdeen, as an 86th-minute substitute for Wendel in a 1–0 win.[6] Three days later he played his first Primeira Liga game in a 2–0 win at F.C. Paços de Ferreira, playing 25 minutes in place of Luciano Vietto.[7]
