Early life

Eustáquio was born in Nazaré, Leiria District, and moved to Leamington, Ontario when he was 13 months old. He returned to Portugal at the age of 11, and spent time in the youth academies of Grupo Desportivo Os Nazarenos and U.D. Leiria.[2]

Club career

Ottawa Fury

On 20 December 2013, Eustáquio signed with North American Soccer League club Ottawa Fury FC.[3] He made his debut on 2 August 2014 as a replacement starter for injured captain Richie Ryan in a 2–1 away loss against Minnesota United FC,[4] and finished the season with eight appearances.

Eustáquio featured significantly the following campaign, playing 23 times across all competitions including twice in the team's run in the Soccer Bowl. He scored his first goal for them on 8 August 2015 in a 4–1 win over the Indy Eleven on 8 August 2015, earning a place on the league's Team of the Week;[5] he added a second on 18 October, helping the hosts defeat the San Antonio Scorpions 1–0,[6] and later in the year he agreed to a contract extension.[7]

Eustáquio nearly went on loan to FC Edmonton during the 2016 season in exchange for Mallan Roberts, however the move fell through.[8] In December, the Fury announced that the former would not return to the club as it was due to move to the United Soccer League.[9]
