Club career
Porto
Born in Aveiro, Sousa returned to FC Porto's youth academy at the age of 13, after a first spell in 2009.[2] He made his senior debut with the reserve team in the LigaPro on 25 August 2019, playing the entire 3–1 away win against S.C. Farense and scoring in the match.[3]
Sousa was part of the squad that won the 2018–19 UEFA Youth League, notably netting in the 3–1 victory over Chelsea in the final.[4]
Belenenses SAD
On 9 September 2020, Sousa signed a four-year contract with Primeira Liga club Belenenses SAD, with Porto retaining 50% of the player's rights.[5][6] He played his first game in the competition nine days later, coming on as a 67th-minute substitute for Silvestre Varela in the 1–0 away defeat of Vitória de Guimarães.[7][8] He scored his first goal on 20 December, just before half-time in a 2–1 home win over S.C. Braga.[9]
Lech Poznań
On 30 June 2022, Sousa moved to defending Polish Ekstraklasa champions Lech Poznań on a four-year deal, for a fee reported around €1,200,000.[10][11] He made his competitive debut on 9 July, coming on as a substitute in a 2–0 Polish Super Cup loss to Raków Częstochowa.[12]
International career
Sousa earned 42 caps for Portugal across all youth levels, starting with the under-15 team in 2015. His first appearance for the under-21s came on 7 October 2021 in an 11–0 home rout of Liechtenstein in 2023 UEFA European Championship qualification.[13] He scored his first goal the following 24 September, closing the 4–1 friendly win over Georgia.[14]
