Club career edit
Almeida is a youth product of Bairro Francos, Santa Cruz FC, Padroense and Paços de Ferreira. He began his senior career in 2015 with Sanjoanense in the Campeonato de Portugal.[1] He followed that up with other teams in the division including Bustelo, Pedras Rubras, Anadia, and the reserves of Estoril.
In the summer of 2019, Almeida transferred to Trofense in the same division. He became a mainstay, and in his fourth season with the club helped them win the 2020–21 Campeonato de Portugal, earning promotion to the Liga Portugal 2.[2]
After a strong debut season in the second division, on 12 August 2022, Almeida earned a loan to Primeira Liga club Santa Clara for the 2022–23 season.[3] After Santa Clara's relegation to the Liga Portugal 2, Almeida signed a three-year contract with the club.[4]
