On 7 October 2018, Cardoso made his professional debut with Boavista in a 2018–19 Primeira Liga match against Desportivo das Aves, starting in the 1–0 home win.[2] He was the second youngest player ever to play for the club, surpassing club legends such as Nuno Gomes and João Vieira Pinto.[3]

In August 2019, he joined West Ham United on a five-year contract for an undisclosed fee.[4] During the 2019-20 and 2020-21 season, Cardoso only featured for the U23's at West Ham playing regularly in the Premier League 2 and three appearances in the EFL Trophy.[5]

On 30 January 2021, Cardoso signed for Swiss Super League side FC Basel on an 18-month loan deal with an option to buy. [6] [7]

International career

On 17 November 2018, Cardoso made his Portugal U19 debut in an international friendly against Armenia U19.[8] He also helped his side get the final of the 2019 UEFA European Under-19 Championship scoring in Portugal's opening group stage fixture against Italy, and while he played in every minute of the campaign for his side, they eventually lost to Spain in the final.[9]

Cardoso also made five appearances for Portugal U20 in the 2019-20 Under 20 Elite League before it was eventually cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[10]
