Club career

Born in Vila Verde, Braga District, Sá joined S.C. Braga's youth system at the age of 10. He spent his first five seasons as a senior with the reserves in the Segunda Liga, his first match in the competition being played on 11 August 2013 in a 1−2 home loss against C.D. Tondela.[2]

Early into the 2018−19 campaign, Sá became the first team's first choice due to a serious knee injury contracted by Matheus.[3] His Primeira Liga debut took place on 31 August, in a 1−0 away win over G.D. Chaves.[4]

Sá was voted Braga's Newcomer of the Year in January 2019.[5]
