Club career
União Leiria
Born in Leiria, Oliveira joined local U.D. Leiria's youth ranks in 2007, aged 13. On 21 April 2012 he made his first-team (and Primeira Liga) debut, playing 15 minutes in a 3–2 away loss against Vitória de Guimarães on his 18th birthday.[2] The following weekend, he was one of only eight players fielded – the club was immerse in a deep financial crisis – in a 0–4 home defeat to C.D. Feirense.[3]
Oliveira was invited to a trial period with AFC Ajax in late May 2012. The Dutch side were impressed with his performance at the Copa Amsterdam where he was part of the under-19 squad, and subsequently invited him to a formal tryout, releasing him at its closure.[4][5][6]
Benfica
Oliveira signed with S.L. Benfica in summer 2012.[7] He spent one season with the juniors, winning the national championship.[8]
Additionally, Oliveira had five bench appearances for the B team in the Segunda Liga, failing to receive any playing time.[9]
Marítimo
On 24 July 2013, Oliveira moved to C.S. Marítimo B also in the second division.[10] He scored two goals in 31 games in the 2014–15 campaign,[11][12] suffering relegation.[13]
Oliveira made his official debut for the first team on 20 August 2017, featuring the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 league home win over Boavista FC.[14] He scored his first goal in the competition for them the following 3 January, but in a 1–2 loss against G.D. Chaves also at the Estádio do Marítimo.[15]
Famalicão
In July 2018, Oliveira signed a two-year deal at F.C. Famalicão of the second tier.[16] He played mainly from the bench in his only season, in which they achieved promotion as runners-up after a quarter-century outside the top flight.[17]
