Nuno Miguel Ribeiro Cruz Jerónimo Sequeira (born 19 August 1990) is a Portuguese footballer who plays for S.C. Braga as a left back.
Club career
Born in Porto, Sequeira finished his development at Leixões SC. He made his senior debut in the lower leagues, with Leça F.C. and AD Fafe.
Sequeira returned to the Estádio do Mar for the 2012–13 season. He made his first appearance in the Segunda Liga on 12 August 2012, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 home win against C.S. Marítimo B.[1]
Sequeira signed with Primeira Liga club C.D. Nacional in late March 2013, with the four-year contract being made effective in the summer.[2] His maiden game in the competition took place on 23 November of the same year in a 1–1 away draw to FC Porto where he also started,[3] but he eventually played in just 13 matches in his first two seasons combined.[4]
Sequeira scored his first goal in the Portuguese top division on 27 November 2015, contributing to a 3–1 home victory over C.S. Marítimo in the Madeira derby.[5] Starting in all of his 31 appearances during the campaign, he helped his team to a final 11th position in the table.
On 24 May 2017, following Nacional's relegation as last, Sequeira moved to fellow top level side S.C. Braga on a four-year deal.[6]
