Club career

edit

Abreu was born in Funchal, Madeira. A product of local C.D. Nacional's youth academy, he made his senior debut with third division club SC Mirandela on loan.[2]

Having returned to Nacional, Abreu first appeared in the Primeira Liga on 26 October 2014, coming on as a late substitute in the 1–0 home win against Académica de Coimbra.[3] He scored his only goal in the competition on 9 November, but in a 1–2 loss to S.L. Benfica also at the Estádio da Madeira.[4]

Abreu was also loaned in the following two seasons, to U.D. Leiria[5] and S.C. Olhanense (the first team competed in the third tier, the second in the Segunda Liga).[6]
