Club career
Born in
In June 2015, Vieira moved to the Primeira Liga after signing a two-year contract with F.C. Paços de Ferreira.[4] His maiden appearance in the competition took place on 30 August of that year, when he came on as a 42nd-minute substitute in a 1–1 home draw with F.C. Arouca.[5]
Vieira scored four times again in the 2017–18 campaign.[3] One of those goals came on 11 March 2018 as the hosts defeated eventual champions FC Porto 1–0,[6] being nonetheless relegated as second-bottom.[7]
On 17 July 2018, Vieira moved abroad for the first time in his career after agreeing to a three-year deal with Segunda División side CD Lugo.[8] On 30 July of the following year, however, he was transferred to İstanbul Başakşehir F.K. of the Turkish Süper Lig.[9]
Vieira spent the next two seasons on loan, first with Wolfsberger AC in the Austrian Football Bundesliga[10] then Waasland-Beveren in the Belgian Pro League.[11] In February 2022, after only six competitive appearances at the Başakşehir Fatih Terim Stadium, the 31-year-old left by mutual consent.[12]
