Benfica on a season-long loan from União de Leiria, and with a buyout clause, being assigned to the former's reserve team in LigaPro.[2][3] He debuted for Benfica B against Académico de Viseu on 8 February.[4] Later, on 31 May, União Leiria announced that he had signed a five-year contract with Benfica.[5] On 6 July 2016, he was loaned out to Primeira Liga side C.D. Tondela for one season.[6] He then returned to Benfica B in the following season.

On 2 September 2019, he signed a 3-year contract with the Russian Premier League club Krylia Sovetov Samara.[7]

On 3 August 2020, he returned to Lokomotiv Moscow, signing a 4-year contract.[8]
