Football career

Born in Luanda, Neto spent his youth career in Portugal, with G.D. Rio de Mouro, Sporting CP, Real SC, C.F. União de Coimbra and S.C. Braga. He made his senior debut in 2013 with A.D. Oeiras of the Lisbon Football Association's first district league, and in the new year joined C.D. Fátima in the third tier.[2]

On 8 August 2014, Neto signed a five-year contract with C.S. Marítimo B in Segunda Liga.[2] He made his professional debut the next day in a 2–1 loss at C.D. Aves, as a 61st-minute substitute for Gonçalo Reyes.[3] He became a regular in the third tier following the Madeirans' relegation, and in August 2018 he transferred across the league to G.D. Gafanha.[4] He scored on his debut, a 1–1 home draw with U.S.C. Paredes on 12 August.[5]

In August 2019, after a successful trial following his release from Marítimo, Neto joined Bangor City in the Cymru North, the second tier of Welsh football.[6] He and Yalany Baio were released in December.[7]
