Cova da Piedade.[5] On 11 July 2019, he signed a four-year contract with Moreirense F.C. of the Primeira Liga.[6] He played his first match in the competition on 11 August, starting the 3–1 defeat at S.C. Braga.[7]

Mané spent the vast majority of the 2020–21 season on the sidelines, due to a knee injury.[8]
