Club career[]

Born in Lyon, France to Portuguese parents, Crespo spent his first four seasons as a senior in lower league or amateur football. On 12 June 2017 he signed with S.C. Braga, being assigned to the reserve side in the LigaPro.[2]

Crespo made his debut as a professional on 19 August 2017, starting in a 0–2 home loss against C.D. Santa Clara.[3] He scored his first goal in the league later that month, in the 2–2 home draw with Leixões SC.[4]

Crespo joined fellow second-tier club G.D. Estoril Praia in July 2019, agreeing to a three-year contract.[5] First choice from 2020–21 onwards,[6] he scored six goals in all competitions during the campaign[7] as his team returned to the Primeira Liga after three years as champions.[8]

On 13 August 2021, Crespo played his first match in the Portuguese top division, a 0–0 home draw against Vitória de Guimarães.[9] He scored for the first time two weeks later, opening the 2–1 win over C.S. Marítimo also at the Estádio António Coimbra da Mota.[10]

Crespo moved to Fenerbahçe S.K. of the Turkish Süper Lig on a three-and-a-half-year deal on 6 September 2021.[11]
